## Fleet DNA: Commercial Fleet Vehicle Operating Data The Fleet DNA clearinghouse of commercial fleet vehicle operating data helps vehicle manufacturers and developers optimize vehicle designs and helps fleet managers choose advanced technologies for their fleets. This online tool provides data summaries and visualizations similar to real-world "genetics" for medium- and heavy-duty commercial fleet vehicles operating in a variety of vocations. 

### Data by Vehicle Category View and download data, charts, and reports by vehicle category.



### Composite Data for All Categories View charts with data for all the vehicle categories above or download the composite data for all vehicles

. Fleet DNA has 4,705 days of driving data from 486 vehicles operating in the United States.
