Abstract

Aspects of systems, method, and computer-readable storage media are provided that determine a vehicle configuration based on operator use case-specific performance impacts. A fleet analytics system is deployed as a lightweight, easy-to-use cloud-based service to a non-technical audience. Aspects of the fleet analytics system utilize a telematics system to collect and store real-time data from vehicles, a cloud-computing system to provide as a service that can be used by operators/dealers/sales personnel and that has sufficient complexity to analyze telemetry data, generate a dataset of actual (real-world) use case-related metrics that are related to a target operator's use case, compare the actual metrics against the target operator's metrics, determine an estimated impact of a vehicle configuration variable to the target operator based on the operator's specific use case, and generate a vehicle configuration and visualizations based on the estimated performance impact for communicating the estimated performance impact to the operator.
