• How does Zixty Miles carbon offsetting work?

  When you activate Zixty Miles, the app will record data from the trips you take while on cover. We look at environmental aspects of your driving and provide a trip by trip eco score and calculate the carbon dioxide emissions for each trip. The eco score is based on your average speeds and how hard you brake and accelerate. Smoother driving uses less fuel so generates less emissions which is good for the environment. If you drive smoothly and at moderate speeds you will achieve the highest scoreFew readers

  We use the government DVLA records to know how much carbon your car produces per Km of driving. We then multiple this by the length of your trip. This is the figure we use to calculate the amount of carbon we will offset. For each policy we create a maximum cap we will offset and this is currently 100 miles for each calendar day of cover. At the end of your policy, we calculate the total CO2 you generated in Kg (within the mileage cap) and then divide this by 21 to get the number of trees we nFew readers
