Trip computer
Trip computer content and appearance varies depending on whether the combined instrument panel is analogue or digital:
Trip meter
The trip computer has two trip meters and one odometer for the total mileage.
Average
Average fuel consumption is calculated from the last resetting.
Note
Average speed
The average speed is calculated for the driving distance driven since the last reset to zero.
Instantaneous
The information for current fuel consumption is updated continuously - approximately once per second. When the car is driven at low speed the consumption is shown per time unit - at a higher speed it is shown related to mileage.
Different units (km/miles) can be selected for the display - see section "Change unit".
Range - distance to empty tank
The trip computer shows the approximate distance that can be driven with the fuel quantity remaining in the tank.
No guaranteed range remains when the heading Distance to empty shows "----".
- In which case, refuel as soon as possible.
The calculation is based on the average fuel consumption over the last 30 km and the remaining driveable fuel quantity.
Note
An economic driving style generally results in a longer driving distance. For more information on how fuel consumption can be influenced, see Volvo Car Corporation's Environmental Philosophy.
Digital speed display in another unit2
If the main instrument is graduated in mph, the equivalent digital speed is shown as km/h.
Change unit
Distance and fuel unit can be changed in the menu system MY CAR, see MY CAR.
