  PLX devices presents PLX kiwi
Economy driving - Fuel Saver
 
 

PLX kiwi is a fuel saver device based on OBDII - EOBD technology. If your vehicle is made from year 2000 and up Kiwi plugs directly into your diagnostic port located on the driver?s side. With both metric units such as Kilometers, and Liters and imperial such as gallons and milles Kiwi can show you how much fuel you consume and help you reduce that number. learn more...

 
  Maximize Fuel Efficiency:

The Drive Green mode is a series of lesson plans designed to optimize your driving behavior in a manner which optimizes your fuel efficiency for your vehicle. The PLX Kiwi uses sophisticated mathematical algorithms to analyze your engine?s performance and your driving behavior. The drive green lessons are designed to maximize your smoothness, drag, acceleration, and deceleration parameters. In doing so, you will notice a significant improvement in your fuel economy.

Smoothness:

A good analogy of driving smoothly comes from the story the Turtle and the Hare where ?Slow and steady wins the race.? By running your engine smoothly instead of bursts of acceleration and bursts of frequent slow downs, uses much less fuel.

Drag:

Your vehicle get?s its highest MPG between 90 and 120 Kilometers per hour (km/h). The faster you drive, the more air resistance is pushing back on your vehicle. This is called drag. Avoiding high drag conditions significantly improves MPG. Drive the speed limit!

Acceleration:

Don?t do what that popular TV commercial suggests you to do... ?Zoom zoom zoom.? During acceleration, your vehicle literally becomes a gas hog. A tremendous amount of energy is required get your vehicle to speed. Ever try pushing your car? Every time you accelerate, you?re using as much energy as turning on over 600 light bulbs, that?s about 30,000 watts. By accelerating modestly and safely, your engine will last longer and burn fuel more efficiently. Keep your accel score high and you?ll feel it less at the pump.

Deceleration:

When you step on your brakes, you?re converting kinetic energy into thermal energy. In layman terms, you?re wasting your motion energy into heat. This is why your brakes get hot. By planning ahead and anticipating stops or slow downs you?ll be able to take your foot off the gas sooner, allowing you to coast to your stop instead of decelerating hard at the last minute.
