ECO gauge in the instrument panel
The ECO gauge in the instrument panel helps
improve driving economy.
•
A low reading in the green area indicates
economical driving.

A higher reading indicates higher fuel con-
sumption.
The ECO gauge also has an indicator showing
how a "reference" driver would drive in the same
situation. This is indicated by a diamond in the
gauge.
