Nissan's new models to get fuel efficiency gauges
Filed under: MPG, Infiniti, Nissan
As part of the Nissan Green Program 2010, the Japanese carmaker will be adding fuel efficiency gauges to all of their new models over the next few years. The first US models to get the new gauges are the Infinity G35 and Nissan Altima. The Altima Hybrid has already one of these gauges since it's launch and the rest of the range will get one now. The new gauges will display instantaneous and average mileage and similar devices have proven to be one of the key tools of hyper-milers. By making the driver immediately aware of the effects of their use of the accelerator and brake drivers can adapt their driving style and potentially achieve improvements of ten percent or more with no technological changes.
