The U.S. trucking industry is critical to the economy, moving over 72% of the nation's freight by weight. And with fleet operating costs per mile trending upward, it's no surprise that fuel expenses stand out as a primary contributor.

When even pennies per gallon add up, the cost savings from increasing fuel economy and minimizing fuel consumption become significant. In addition, exploring benchmarks, reference points, and actionable strategies can help fleets identify best practices and enhance fuel efficiency.

In this new whitepaper we highlight:

  • The current state of fuel efficiency in the trucking industry
  • Factors affecting the efficiency of fuel
  • Best practices for improving fuel economy
