The aim of the study was to verify the impact of the cruise control use on the vehicle fuel consumption. The measurements were based on PEMS type mobile equipment for exhaust emission tests. The tests were carried out in real driving conditions travelling on an express way. Test drives took place on a route with variable topographic profile.
