Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks / Driving
English term or phrase: Rapid Accels
Again, this is text for a smartphone app and the space for the text is limited to two rows of 6 characters each. Four different driving characteristic are shown in one view, similar to a table. There are counters above each characteristic that count the number of instances these actions have occured.

These statistics help to monitor safe or less safe driving, for example when you have a teenager driving or a fleet of vehicles on the road. It can also help to optimize fuel costs.

Rapids accels use more fuel. Schnelles Beschläunigen, is too long obviously.

Thanks again for your help.

Explanation:
Analog zum Stark verzög beim Bremsen. Abk. ist mMn gegenüber ungenauer/gezwungener Formulierung die bessere Wahl, aber vielleicht musste ich in letzter Zeit auch zu viele UI-Strings kürzen ;)

Explanation:
Jaja, zu Umgangssprachlich, Werner-Sprache etc.; ich warte auf zahlreiche "disagrees", aber wenn die App für jugendliche Fahranfänger gedacht ist? Gerne auch in Anführungszeichen („Treten“) setzen. In Vollform: Aufs Gas treten, die Kiste treten etc. bzw. vielleicht wird an anderer Stelle die fachsprachliche Vollform ja erläutert und auf die Kurzform verwiesen.

„Umgangssprachlich“ gehört natürlich kleingeschrieben...
