How to Display Fuel Consumption on Chery Tiggo 8 Plus?

[DiAmara]

First, open the car door and power on the entire vehicle. There are two bidirectional arrow indicators on the left side of the multifunction steering wheel, which can be toggled back and forth. The fuel consumption display of Chery Tiggo 8 can be activated by pressing the button on the right side of the steering wheel. The fuel consumption is divided into average fuel consumption and instantaneous fuel consumption.

As a Tiggo 8 PLUS owner, I check the fuel consumption display daily, and the operation is quite simple. When driving, pay attention to the multifunction button area on the right side of the steering wheel. Locate the button with a schematic diagram icon (some models have a small house icon), and press it to switch the instrument cluster display. Press it several times until the large circular screen in the center shows 'Average Fuel Consumption' or 'Comprehensive Fuel Consumption,' with the unit displayed as L/100km. The small screen beside it will also show the instantaneous fuel consumption bar and remaining range. If you turn on the air conditioning or encounter traffic congestion, the fuel consumption numbers will fluctuate noticeably, so it's important to pay attention to your driving habits. The instrument cluster can also display segmented fuel consumption records, such as fuel consumption for a single trip, which is particularly helpful for understanding how fuel efficiency varies under different road conditions.

I've been repairing cars for over a decade and have worked on almost all Chery models. Adjusting the fuel consumption display on the Tiggo 8 PLUS is just a matter of pressing a few buttons. After starting the vehicle, look at the right side of the steering wheel—there's usually a button with a list symbol or a return arrow. Hold it down for two seconds to access the fuel consumption menu. Use the up and down buttons to toggle through data like 'current trip' and 'long-term fuel consumption.' Pay special attention to the data with a small 'A' icon; that's the true average fuel consumption. When tire pressure is low or the engine oil needs changing, this number will quietly increase by about 0.5. I often use this trick to assess a car's condition when helping customers. Regularly monitoring fuel consumption changes can reveal many potential issues.

It's simpler than you think once you try: Start the engine, locate the horizontal buttons on the right side of the steering wheel. Find the one with a menu icon (resembling three lines or a square), tap it to cycle through dashboard displays. Stop when fuel consumption data appears on the central screen. There are two types: real-time instantaneous fuel consumption shown as a dynamic bar graph that rises when accelerating, and average fuel consumption marked with 'AVG'. City driving typically shows around 9L/100km, while highway driving can drop to 7L/100km. To reset the data? Just hold the menu button for five seconds.

I didn't know before either, but later I found out it's controlled on the steering wheel. After starting the car, look at the dashboard and find the button with a dashboard icon among the row of buttons on the lower right side of the steering wheel. Press it, and the central LCD screen on the dashboard will cycle through various information. Stop when you see 'Average Fuel Consumption x.x L/100km'. The small screen on the left shows the instantaneous fuel consumption bar - if you press the accelerator hard, that column can reach the top. I recommend making a habit of keeping an eye on it while driving; it really helps with fuel economy. Last month, I consciously controlled the accelerator, and my fuel consumption actually dropped from 10.2 to 9.3.

The fuel consumption display of the Tiggo 8 PLUS actually contains a wealth of trip computer data. By toggling the menu button on the right side of the steering wheel, you can access three types of fuel consumption data on the instrument cluster: the instantaneous fuel consumption is shown as a bar graph, indicating current throttle input; the fuel consumption for the most recent 50 kilometers of travel; and the average fuel consumption over the total mileage. Pay special attention when the instantaneous fuel consumption bar remains high for an extended period, as this indicates the engine is operating in an inefficient range. Once, I noticed that maintaining a steady speed of 20 km/h resulted in the lowest fuel consumption, so now I try to keep this speed whenever I encounter traffic congestion.
