What is the tutorial Economic routes can be slower in Google Maps?
In the tutorial Economy routes can be slower in Google Maps I will explain why, when we use Google Maps as a navigation application, it is possible to do more on an economy route than on the non-economy version.
Google Maps and economical car-specific routes
Everyone already knows that Google Maps has some options when it comes to choosing a route.
I mean when we want to go somewhere and we use Maps for the route, we have two or three route options.
A main option and one or two secondary ones, which we do more or less.
If we have activated the economic routes option, Google Maps will be tempted to sometimes choose the most economical route, marked with a leaf, as the main route.
The problem with economic routes on Google Maps
If you have chosen the more economical routes as an option and you have a hybrid or electric car, it is possible that you will be offered as the main route one that takes longer, just because it is a little more economical.
Or if you have a gasoline or diesel car, a longer route outside the city is recommended, only because it is more economical, but as above, it will take longer.
What is actually the problem with economic routes?
The more economical routes, sometimes, save fuel, but consume our time. And I think time is more important than a few hundred ml of fuel or a few kw
My advice would be to look carefully at all the routes and choose exactly what suits you rather than quickly choosing the main route
