DAF EcoDrive training

For greater efficiency and a cleaner environment


Transport companies are facing a considerable squeeze on profitability in the current climate. In the face of rising fuel prices, competitive transport rates and increasingly stringent environmental requirements, it is becoming more and more difficult to generate a healthy return from your fleet.

Cost savings can have a direct impact your operating results, and the most obvious way to make savings is to drive as efficiently as possible. Each driver who completes the DAF EcoDrive training learns to drive an average of 5–10% more economically in the short term. In practice, this generally results in permanent fuel savings of 3–5%, generating pure profit for your company as well as helping to create a cleaner environment.

An investment in DAF EcoDrive training quickly pays for itself

Example calculation:

  • Your truck covers 120,000 km per year
  • The fuel saving is 5%
  • This equates to 2000 litres of pure profit per truck
  • Plus less maintenance and repair work
  • Plus less damage
  • Plus a reduction in CO2 emissions
