Drive green, save gas!
The Kiwi is a simple to use plug-and-play device compatible with all 1996 vehicles and up. Kiwi plugs into your existing on board diagnostic port (OBDII), located near your steering column. From this port, Kiwi is able to obtain detailed sensor information about your vehicle. This sensor data including vehicle speed, RPM, engine load, and oxygen sensor readings are all analyzed to determine your vehicle's optimum driving efficiency. Kiwi operates much like a game. As you drive, your daily goal is to obtain the highest possible "Kiwi Score" and in doing so, your driving style will be optimized for the highest MPG - no matter what vehicle you drive.
Each day, Kiwi will show you how much money on gas you've saved compared to the last trip you took with Kiwi installed. Over time, you can keep track of hundreds of dollars saved throughout the year. On average, users notice about a 20% improvement in MPG in as little as a few days.
According to fueleconomy.gov efficient, sensible driving and observing the speed limit can improve your fuel efficiency by up to 33%. Aggressive driving such as rapid acceleration, exceeding the speed limit, and heavy braking wastes gas. The Kiwi's sophisticated mathematical algorithms are designed to calculate and optimize your vehicle's fuel efficiency and reduce the output of global warming CO2.
Even if your car is already equipped with a factory MPG meter, it will only give you your instantaneous MPG and your trip MPG. It will not provide you with the necessary information for you to understand and identify wasteful driving behavior. The Kiwi is able to identify the wasteful driving trends not available from your vehicle MPG meter.
