Method was developed to estimate from engineering tests fuel economy that will be observed by customers in normal car service; trip length, horsepower, weight, temperature, and type of driving are used to predict customer fuel economy; changes in fuel economy can be estimated knowing amount of change that has been made in any of these factors.
