Stage 1 remapping in Weston-super-Mare
Of the working residents in the Weston-super-Mare built-up area, 55.1% drove to work in the 2021 Census, against 45.1% across England and Wales. For a car used that way, Stage 1 remapping shows most on the slip road: joining fast roads such as the M5 is where a diesel's extra mid-range torque helps it merge with less effort. The fuel, boost and timing settings are revised in software, and the engine is kept inside its limits. Overtaking takes less effort too, and hills need fewer downshifts. Nothing is bolted on to the engine.
