It’s idle reduction that works automatically, giving drivers control over their comfort without compromising efficiency.

EASY-TO-INSTALL HARDWARE

Installing Idle Smart is straightforward and takes about an hour. The base unit automatically controls the engine behind the scenes while the in-cab display allows drivers to manage climate settings without sacrificing fuel efficiency.

No maintenance.

No downtime.

No worries.

USER-FRIENDLY PLATFORM

Take command of your fleet’s efficiency with Idle Smart’s SmartPortal platform. Track fuel savings, customize idle settings, and access predictive maintenance Insights to optimize your fleet’s performance and drive down operating costs.

OUTSMARTING THE COMPETITION.

Traditional solutions are designed to reduce idling on individual trucks, but they aren’t built to deliver fleet-wide savings.
