SHIFT INDICATOR

摘要

A method and system for a shift indicator are provided. The method includes receiving a number of gears of a transmission of a vehicle, determining a plurality of average revolutions per minute (“RPM”) to vehicle speed ratios for each of the gears of the transmission, comparing a current RPM to vehicle speed ratio to the plurality of average RPM to vehicle speed ratios to determine a current gear, and based on the current gear and a current RPM, indicating to a driver of the vehicle to shift the vehicle to a new gear. The system includes components for implementing the method.
