Abstract
A fuel consumption prediction system predicts the fuel consumption of a vehicle comprising a fleet. The fuel consumption prediction system a driver-related coefficient to be applied to the driver-related explanatory variable and a vehicle-related coefficient to be applied to the vehicle-related explanatory variable based on the actual values of the driver-related explanatory variables and the vehicle-related explanatory variables, and calculates fuel consumption as an objective variable by using the driver related explanatory variables and the vehicle related explanatory variables. The fuel consumption prediction system recalculates a predicted value of the fuel consumption when at least one of the attribute of the driver and the attribute of the vehicle is changed by using the driver-related coefficient and the vehicle-related coefficient.
