Nissan Leaf Uses Crowdsourcing to Enhance Fuel Economy

Nissan Leaf owners with a competitive streak will be happy to learn that the electric car has a wirelessly connected ranking system for driving efficiency.Nissanâ€™s Carwings system connects all Nissan Leafs to a network, wirelessly feeding their energy economy statistics to a central server. The â€œRegional Rankingsâ€ system compares the driverâ€™s energy economy to other Leaf drivers in the region, and the winner receives a nifty gold trophy icon on the Carwings dashboard control center. The second, third and fourth place winners can also win a place on the graphical podium, receiving icons depicting gold, silver and bronze medals.
Originally available in Japan, the Carwings connected system uses crowdsourcing to enhance fuel economy, displaying real-time traffic predictions using data compiled from other Carwings users.
