Computer What is this in the on-board computer (merged)

FWH · 26th August 2007, 16:11

Look at the display in this pic from a Honda website.
The on-board computer display in the centre of the rev counter.

What is it showing?

Cad · 26th August 2007, 16:21

It looks like the 'realtime' MPG ( or litres per 100km) indicator to me, but with added 'bits'.

Maybe, for photo purposes, they just turned all the display options on and that's why it looks familiar, yet slightly odd.

Its the instantaneous fuel consumption in l/100km

FWH · 26th August 2007, 16:41

My instantaneous fuel does not look like that.
It is just a bar that moves.

I don´t have those car images.

I have km/h car (ie litres per 100 km on this display), is it different on the mpg cars?

don't worry it is just a demo pic
look the IGN is on but the red warning lights are photoshopped etc. etc.

I am not worried - just curious.
It looks a bit like a radar showing distance to car infront.

Was wondering if this display was a feature dropped before it went into production.

Or as you say the whole thing might just be fake and made up by some marketing people.

I'd go for prototype software.

Using Hollywood style zooming in magic:

Compared to mine:

While on the Hondamentalism website, I decided my wallpaper needed a change, so I downloaded the one of the interior of the CTR (from the drivers seat).

However, while looking at the picture, it seems the display in the centre of the Rev-Counter is different to mine?

Is anyone elses like this, or is this maybe a picture of a prototype / unreleased software version?

That makes two of us

Kremmen · 28th January 2008, 07:15

Apart from mine not not being red it looks just like my EX display for the actual MPG reading.

Is the CTR different then ?

l-noel · 28th January 2008, 08:19

Same on mine 2.2 i-CTDI in red instead of blue

Maquis73 · 28th January 2008, 08:27

Definately the same as my 57 reg Type S GT (but in Red)

Stephen B · 28th January 2008, 09:50

same as my 07 type r tbh

ADE Type S · 28th January 2008, 09:54

Looks that same as in my 1.8 Type S but in blue too

pjr · 28th January 2008, 10:09

Nope. Different to mine - pretty certain mine has a petrol pump at the top left of the computer display, rather than the car shape. (March 07 Type S) Wouldn't imagine the Type R would have a different computer to the rest of the range, except for the lighting.

Discussed before in this thread.
