GE Capital Fleet announced the launch of IntelliGauge, a mobile fuel and CO2 calculator application designed to allow users to compare components of their current vehicles against future vehicles, helping companies and consumers make informed decisions on their vehicle purchases. IntelliGauge, available at www.geintelligauge.com, is free to use and is optimized for use on iPads, smartphones and desktops.

According to the company, decision makers using IntelliGauge can quickly and intuitively calculate annual fuel savings, CO2 emissions and the fuel efficiency to assist in budget planning, vehicle selection and other decisions that take these factors into account. The application asks users to provide information regarding the makeup of their vehicles and annual mileage estimates, and allows users to edit fuel prices delivering a customized report that can be saved, shared or compared against other scenarios.

“Fuel price volatility continues to have a big impact on the decisions companies make, including vehicle replacement strategies,” says Brad Hoffelt, senior vice president and general manager of products and services at GE Capital Fleet Services. “We’re focused on identifying ways to couple technology solutions with our deep domain expertise to help our customers preserve capital and optimize fleet efficiency.”

The application also includes links to a number of other GE Capital Fleet Services mobile and educational resources, including GE’s ecomagination site, an alternative fuel locator application, a U.S. fuel price map and information regarding GE’s WattStation technology.
