In this white paper from MiX Telematics, we look at the unique challenges service fleets have to overcome and the specific ways in which a telematics solution can fix these.

Fleets face a multitude of fuel-efficiency testing methods, each with unique contexts and applications, making comparisons challenging and confusing, and extrapolation to the real world even more so, the North American Council for Freight Efficiency said in its latest report.

Trucks in the European Union are no more fuel-efficient than they were more than a decade ago, according to a report released Dec. 3, as calls increase for emissions from heavy-duty vehicles to be regulated in the same way as cars.

Almost three quarters of American consumers support requiring truck manufacturers to raise the fuel economy of heavy-duty trucks, according to a recent report.

Speaking at a Safeway Inc. distribution center in Maryland on Feb. 18, President Obama ordered his staff to develop a proposed rule further tightening greenhouse-gas emissions by heavy- and medium-duty trucks by March 2015 and to complete the process a year after that.
