Abstract
Drive cycle is a series of data points of vehicle speed against time. It represent the real world driving conditions as it was proposed to be compared between estimated vehicle fuel consumption with the measured results. The purpose of this research is to suggest a simple drive cycle in certain amount of time and also to indicate the fuel consumption used. The other purpose is to find the relationship between efficient driving and safe driving while doing this research’s experiment. Basically, the drive cycle experiment involves only a few steps to be done. The first step is to have a route selection consist of urban and non-urban area. The second step is to collect the data needed to make the drive cycle. An Android application is used to take the data needed and a speed time graph automatically be produced. Plus, a questionnaire will be spread online for people to fill up to find the correlation between efficient driving and safe driving with fuel consumption. The data that will be collected is used to find the fuel consumption of the vehicle. The parameter that will be compare is the vehicle maximum speed, vehicle average speed and also the time duration. The reference data can be used from the New European Drive Cycle (NEDC) data. The questionnaire will be examine and a correlation can be made by the results taken. This method is very user friendly and can be used for daily life method for safe vehicle driving. The fuel consumption is in (l/100km) units. The drive cycle has its own pattern to represent the behaviour of road test. Therefore, the drive cycle results will be coordinated with the questionnaire respondent for safe driving and refuelling fuel method.
