Pick an answer to test yourself.
Correct answer
Reduced fuel consumption.
Official explanation
The advantages of eco-driving include improved road safety, improved fuel consumption, and reduced emissions.

This reduces the need for harsh acceleration and braking, which results in a more economical style of driving and a smoother drive.
