Distance To Empty?

[Pavlos]

I don't know if this topic has been raised before so bear with me since I'm a newbie here and just learning my RX400. I would assume that with all the gadgetry and trip infos this car has, the most basic information of how much more distance you have, before you ran out of petrol would have been first on the list. Its a shame the only warning you get is the 'old fashioned' warning light. I've seen cheaper older cars that have this feature and its a great help. Is this the case or am I just missing something that's staring at me in the face? :o

Firstly, Hi and welcome to the LoC :)

Secondly, may I [politely] suggest that 'if you don't know' something that you use the SEARCH button on the top right before posting? in this case it would have revealed that this question has come up many times before; but seeing as you're here, the answer your question is, in a word, no. The 400h doesn't provide you with an estimated run down counter of fuel left as the petrol RX does.

I think this has been covered before and the RX400h cannot calculate the distance to empty as it is part electric part petrol. If you are crawling through town using the electric motor then you are not using any fuel so the only time you would get a distance to empty figure would be when using the petrol engine. Dont know if the computer could switch easily between the two engines

Thank you both for your replies, and also for pointing out the 'search button'
