  1. Use linear interpolation to calculate the energy consumption factor for the speed of the segment.
  2. Calculate the actual energy consumption for the segment speed by multiplying the Engine.fuelConsumption with the previously interpolated consumption factor.
  3. Calculate the amount of used energy for the road segment with its distance.
  4. Calculate the energy cost by multiplying the amount of used energy with the MonetaryCostOptions.costPerEnergyUnit.

VehicleProfile

used by RequestProfile, ProfileResponse
since 2.0

Defines the vehicle to be used which activates rules of different algorithms. Please note that all values apply to the complete vehicle including trailers. Note that the results may be incorrect because the legal definition of a vehicle type may differ from country to country and it may also differ from the technical definition. As an example, a truck with a weight of 7.5 tons is a truck by legal definition in Germany but is not a truck by definition of toll. Most parameters are used for several use cases. They are denoted with (1) for routing, (2) for toll, (3) for emission calculation, (4) for truck attributes, and (5) for preferred routes. Give as many details on the vehicle as possible in order to obtain the best result.
