More accurately estimating SMS can maximize mass savings, thereby increasing fuel economy. Secondary mass savings are mass reductions that may be achieved in supporting (load-bearing) vehicle parts when the gross vehicle mass (GVM) is reduced. On average, that mass savings translates into a 10% savings in fuel economy.
