Computer accuracy - Honda - GeoPlay
Does anybody know if the computer generated fuel consumption figures are supposed to be accurate. On my Honda the computer mpg is approx 7% optimistic. Do other makes of cars give similar readings? I have assumed that the computer figures are there to give users a feel good factor.

Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.

Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
