What does trip mean on the dashboard?
2 Answers
Dashboard trip refers to the trip mileage, which is a function that can calculate the number of kilometers the car has traveled within a certain period of time. Most cars have this trip mileage function. There is also odo on the car dashboard, which represents the total mileage of the car. The trip mileage function can be set directly through the buttons on the dashboard. The owner can calculate the total mileage from point A to point B, and can also calculate the mileage traveled within a week. The car dashboard is a device that reflects the working conditions of various vehicle systems, including: fuel indicator, washer fluid indicator, electronic throttle indicator, front and rear fog light indicators, and warning lights.
I've been driving for several years, and the trip function on the dashboard is super useful to me. It's like a small trip recorder, displaying the current driving distance, average fuel consumption, and speed. After each refueling, I press the reset button to reset it, allowing me to track the mileage for that tank of gas, helping me save money and optimize my driving habits. With two counters, Trip A and Trip B, I can separately record weekday commutes and weekend outings. Remember, the total mileage is the odometer, which doesn't change easily, but the trip resets every time you start the car, making it suitable for short-term monitoring. Developing a habit of checking it regularly can help detect abnormal fuel consumption or car issues earlier.
