Improvement of the rationing of fuel consumption for transport operations for intercity transportations

The existing fuel consumption standards approved by the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation, do not correspond to modern roads and vehicles. The main disadvantage of these standards is the constant level of fuel consumption for transport operations, regardless of the total mass of a vehicle. A comparative analysis of Russian and foreign techniques of rationing the fuel consumption during intercity transportation was carried out. The main factors affecting fuel consumption were identified and a conclusion was made on the need to improve the techniques of fuel consumption rationing for transport operations.
