Vehicle computer system for determining and displaying load power consumption has energy detection device that provides consumption data to evaluation device driving display

摘要

The system has a computer unit (12) and a display screen (14) for displaying vehicle-specific information. An energy detection device (30) detects the energy consumed by loads in a motor vehicle and provides corresponding data and an evaluation device (36) receives the data, converts it into equivalent fuel consumption and feeds it to the screen for display. AN Independent claim is also included for the following: a method of determining and displaying power consumption in a load in a vehicle.
