This work analyzed the driving style influence on total polluting emissions emitted by an internal combustion vehicle. In this research, the most sold sedan vehicle in Ecuador was used. Parameters used to define the driving style were speed and acceleration; with these information, two styles were classified: normal and aggressive. There are no formal studies in the media about the relationship between pollutant emissions and driving style. Output variables used were vehicle fuel consumption and CO2, CO, HC and NOX pollutant emissions, and as input variables, driving parameters: intake manifold absolute pressure, throttle position, engine speed, speed and the acceleration of the vehicle. It was identified the most important variables such as MAP, TPS, VSS, and RPM with a determination index of 0.97519. Information was acquired by a data logger device, and post-processed using automatic learning techniques was verified a direct relationship between driving style and the polluting emissions, as well as fuel consumption. Therefore, it was verified that a normal driving style can reduce pollutant emissions by up to 22%, for which it is recommended that drivers should avoid sudden acceleration and sudden braking.
