How the performance score works

We measure loading, responsiveness, and visual stability using Google’s Chrome User Experience Report (CrUX). This is a website performance benchmark, not an assessment of a dealership’s service, sales, accessibility, security, or conversion rate.

Real visitors

CrUX aggregates eligible Chrome users’ experiences across a website’s origin and device types, over a rolling 28-day window. Sites need sufficient CrUX coverage to be scored. Absence from CrUX does not establish poor performance.

We use the 75th percentile (p75) of each metric. Lighthouse audits and screenshots can explain opportunities, but do not change the score.

Google’s CrUX methodology

Scoring · crux-weighted-v1

All five finite, nonnegative metrics are required. Missing metrics are never treated as zero or estimated. Each contribution is clamped between zero and its full weight; the weighted sum is multiplied by 100.

MetricBestWorstWeight
First Contentful Paint (FCP)1000 ms6000 ms15%
Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)1000 ms8000 ms25%
Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)0 0.8 30%
Time to First Byte (TTFB)250 ms3000 ms15%
Interaction to Next Paint (INP)100 ms1000 ms15%

Contribution = clamp(1 − (value − best) / (worst − best), 0, 1) × weight

A reproducible example

  • FCP: 2500 ms
  • LCP: 3500 ms
  • CLS: 0.1
  • TTFB: 500 ms
  • INP: 200 ms

These values produce 79.79 / 100, calculated with the same configuration used by ingestion.

Independence

Scores reflect measured performance and are independent of whether a dealership uses Driverseat or requests a review. DealerDB is published by Driverseat, a dealership website provider.
