Navigation Display- Fuel Consumption Monitor

[Richard599]

I need some help. We
have a 2013 Lexus ES-300h. On the navigation
display – under Menu, Information, Fuel Consumption, Energy Monitor, Past
Record - there is a “Best MPG” display in the bottom right of the display. Ours is currently blank (like we don’t yet
have a “Best MPG”. We have ~ 1,100 miles
on the car and have re-fueled about 3 times.
Is this normal? Where can we read
about this anomaly (Owners Manuel page, etc.).
Thank you. Richard

Richard,

I've included a couple of screen shots from my vehicle. Switch to this Fuel Consumption record, then take a short drive. That should get your fuel consumption reporting set up. A (very short) discussion of this option is in the Owner's Manual, Navigation System (2014, Page 46), though I see you have a 2013. Let me know if this doesn't work, and we'll try to get you fixed up.

Doug,

Thank you. Actually my dealer's staff were able to assist me with this last week. However, I also appreciate your response, as well. I have opened the screen up to "full screen" on the "Energy Monitor" page and captured the attached photos. The car is doing really well at what seems to be ~40mpg. I'm not sure how to read the "Best 38.7mpg" while there is a "Average 43.3mpg" next to it. Perhaps the Average is related to that tank of gas, as it seems to be the same as the other dash display with 43.2mpg "after refueling".

Update to original post.

Our Lexus ES-300h (2013) is now 2  1/2 years old with 18,600 miles and is averaging 40.4 MPG.  It has been very reliable. The image below shows the data.
