Abstract

A method for operating a main vehicle along a trajectory, the vehicle belonging to a fleet of vehicles, the main vehicle including a powertrain controlled by a control unit. To diminish the consumption of the vehicle, the method includes analyzing, by an external server, consumption data of each vehicles of the fleet of vehicles having previously travelled on said trajectory; based on the analyzed consumption data, identifying, by the external server, an improvable-consumption section of the trajectory; and providing to the control unit from the external server with instructions to restrict consumption of the powertrain on the improvable-consumption section.
