The Awards name the best gear to use to add value to your car and save money – and taking the top honour as Product of the Year is the Garmin ecoRoute HD.
The device works simply, plugging into a car to monitor fuel use. This data is then transmitted to the screen of certain Garmin nüvi sat-navs, and allows drivers to rate their performance behind the wheel. They can then identify areas where they need to improve and reduce their fuel consumption in the process.
Graham Hope, acting editor of Auto Express, said: “With the average price of a fill-up now £80, drivers are constantly looking for ways to slash their bills – and the Garmin ecoRoute HD is an ideal solution. It’s an ingenious way to monitor your driving and cut your carbon footprint.”
The £100 ecoRoute HD was just one of 23 winners in Auto Express’s annual Product Awards. The full list of the best accessories will feature in the 8 June issue of Auto Express.
