How to switch between fuel consumption and speed on the Golf dashboard?
2 Answers
Golf VI dashboard displays the switchable driving range in kilometers and fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. Here are some relevant details about the Golf: In terms of interior space: As a hatchback, the Golf's roofline doesn't deliberately pursue a fastback effect for visual appeal, yet it offers decent passenger space. Regarding powertrain: The Golf is positioned as a regular family car. The first-generation Golf GTI, introduced in 1976, has spanned over 30 years of history and has now evolved to its seventh generation. Equipped with the classic EA888 engine, its overall power output is excellent - the 110kW maximum power lives up to its "hot hatch" reputation, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
When driving my Golf, I love tinkering with the dashboard. There are buttons on the left or right side of the steering wheel, and pressing the left or right buttons allows me to switch between fuel consumption and speed. The speed is the real-time speed display, such as numbers like 60km/h. There are two types of fuel consumption: instantaneous fuel consumption, which is affected by the current throttle position and fluctuates up and down, and average fuel consumption, which is a long-term statistical value and more stable. I prefer to check the average fuel consumption to monitor the car's condition. A regular Golf typically consumes around 6-8L/100km. Switching between displays while driving is very convenient, but don’t constantly look down at the dashboard—safety comes first. Studying it at a red light is the most appropriate time, and you might also notice that abnormal tire pressure can indirectly affect the fuel consumption reading.
