Abstract

A scoring device for evaluating the efficiency of a route travelled with a vehicle, an efficiency evaluation method and a system. Acceleration sensors are formed in a mobile telecommunications device in order to obtain position and acceleration data which are supplied to the scoring device via an interface in order to calculate a vehicle model with set parameters from the sensor data. The vehicle model serves to calculate efficiency values for the route travelled which are compared for similarity to reference efficiency values and are incorporated in a graphical depiction of the route travelled.
