Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for increasing the efficiency of vehicle platooning systems are described. In one aspect, data associated with two or more vehicles is received by a system. The data received by the system may indicate where two or more vehicles may rendezvous such that they can platoon. In some examples, a rendezvous location may be determined based on the time it would take the vehicles to arrive at the location and/or the amount of fuel that would be spent if the vehicles were to travel out of their way to arrive at the location. Example user interfaces are described that include maps indicating where a rendezvous location is, and which may include information about where other vehicle(s) are that are also traveling to the rendezvous location.
