Abstract: A method, system and computer program product are provided for determining a measure of brake system usage during operation of a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a power source for generating a motive force for propulsion of the vehicle in a first direction of travel, and driver controllable means for requesting a brake force that acts against a movement of the vehicle in the first direction of travel. When a driver of the vehicle requests a brake force, the method comprises determining an influence on the vehicle acceleration caused by the request for brake force; and determining, based on the determined influence, a measure of brake system usage of the vehicle, the measure indicating a level of economical driving, wherein a particular level is arranged to depend on the magnitude of the influence on the vehicle acceleration caused by the request for brake force.

Abstract: A method for determining a measure of energy utilization during operation of a vehicle (100) which has a first power source (101) for generating a first motive force for propulsion of the vehicle (100) in a first direction of travel, and has at least one first brake system which acts against movement of the vehicle (100) in the first direction of travel. For a first period of time when demand for motive force from the first power source is interrupted, estimating energy consumption during operation of the vehicle (100) without demanding brake force from the first brake system, and using the estimated energy consumption during operation of the vehicle (100), without demanding brake force from the first brake system, as a basis for determining a measure of energy utilization during operation of the vehicle (100).
