Armed with tips from young local engineering students and a winning couple from the Shell FuelSave Challenge in 2013, celebrity DJs Glenn Ong and Jean Danker, who were participating in Singapore's first-ever Shell FuelSave Celebrity Driving Challenge, were pitted against each other last Saturday to obtain the highest fuel efficiency score.
Guiding Glenn and Jean were Ferdinand Lai and Annette Phay, one of the winning couples of the Shell FuelSave Challenge held in August 2013.
Together, they averaged a high fuel efficiency score of 20.5km/L in the challenge. SEM student teams from NTU and ITE College West were also present to share valuable tips with the couple as they geared up for the final leg before Manila.
Jean Danker emerged as the winner with a fuel efficiency score of 17.2km/L and will represent Singapore for the celebrity drive at SEM in Manila on 7th February - where she will join three other famous faces from Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines.
The celebrities will compete to see who can go the furthest in an ultra-energy efficient vehicle designed by students.
Speaking about her victory, Jean Danker said, "This two-hour driving challenge was a really great experience. I completed it without using air-conditioning the whole way, and I definitely learned a lot of tips. I'm really excited to be taking this challenge to the next level in Manila, and I hope I can show Singaporean drivers it's easy to become more fuel efficient by choosing the right fuel and making a few small changes to the way they drive."
From 6th to the 9th of February 2014, 150 teams from 16 countries including four from Singapore will participate in the Asian leg, which is set to take place, for the first time, on the streets of Manila, Philippines.
