Claim One:
1. A driving evaluation apparatus for evaluating a result of driving a vehicle in certain driving interval on the basis of driving data acquired at time of driving in the driving interval, comprising: an energy consumption efficiency calculator calculating an energy consumption efficiency in the driving interval, by using the driving data; a driving environment variable calculator calculating a driving environment variable indicative of an environment factor which exerts an influence on energy consumption by driving in the driving interval, on the basis of the driving data; a function storing unit storing a plurality of probability density functions or cumulative distribution functions having the energy consumption efficiency as a probability variable; a function selector selecting the probability density function or the cumulative distribution function corresponding to the calculated driving environment variable; and an evaluation value calculator calculating an evaluation value for evaluating a result of driving in the driving interval by using the selected probability density function or the selected cumulative distribution function and the calculated energy consumption efficiency.
