5. Gas Pedal Percentage Gauge/Turbo Gauge/ECO In-
dex Gauge
Depending on what options and trim level, your vehicle
is equipped with there are three gauges available.
• Gas Pedal Percentage Gauge: This gauge shows
what percent the gas pedal is currently depressed at.
• Turbo Gauge: This gauge shows the current turbo
usage.
• ECO Index Gauge: The ECO Index gauge allows the
driver to monitor their driving style in order to increase
fuel economy. The efficiency of the driving style is
displayed on a gauge located on the right side of the
instrument cluster and ranges from a minimum value of
0 up to a maximum value of 5 (0 = low, 5 = high). A
higher "ECO" index indicates a more fuel efficient drive
style and will increase your fuel economy. A lower
"ECO" index indicates
decelerations and will decrease your fuel economy. The
index is recalculated approximately every second and
takes into account a combination of the instant fuel
economy and your driving style during the current trip.
NOTE: Different trips may have different values even if the
same driving style is maintained. Some factors that may
impact the calculated index value are:
• Traffic conditions
• Trip duration
• Temperature (engine and ambient)
frequent accelerations/
