What does 'trip' mean on a car's dashboard?
1 Answers
The 'trip' on a car's dashboard refers to the trip mileage, which records the distance traveled by the user for each trip. It represents the mileage before the current stage is reset to zero. To start recording the mileage anew, you can hold down the reset button. The minimum unit of the trip mileage 'trip' is 0.1 kilometers, and the basic calculation method is the amount of engine oil used per hundred kilometers, a parameter also provided by the manufacturer. This is calculated by dividing the actual fuel consumption by the actual distance traveled. The car's odometer also includes two LCD digital display windows connected to the same signal source, which respectively accumulate the current trip mileage and the total mileage. The current trip mileage usually has four digits for short-term counting and can be reset; the total mileage has six digits and cannot be reset.
