Real time fuel economy (Litres per 100 KM).

Pay attention to it during stop and go traffic when you are gassing it, and then notice how it changes when you are driving at freeway/expressway speeds. You'll figure it out.

It's the excitement gauge. The lower the number, the more fun you should be having! Some people call it the fuel economy gauge.

HAHAHA Great way to put it, hadn't thought of it like that. Of course with gas prices being what they are I seem to be having less and less "fun" :thumbsup:

Gas prices what they are, you can NEVER have too much fun with these cars. Even my large barge, e38, surprises a lot of people when I have it in sport mode. :)

actually seeing as its "liters per 100km" not "miles per gallon" the lower the number the better fuel economy and less "fun". Its fuel per distance rather than distance per fuel.
