Embodiment Construction

[0031] figure 1 A block diagram of an embodiment of the vehicle information system according to the present invention, which is indicated by reference numeral 1, is shown. The vehicle information system 1 has two vehicle control devices 2, 3, which have two distance measuring devices 4, 5 or 6, 7 respectively. In addition, each of the vehicle control devices 2 and 3 has instantaneous energy consumption measuring devices 8 and 9 and a display device 17. The vehicle information system 1 is, for example, a controller, such as a component part of a controller for driver information.

[0032] The distance measuring devices 4, 5 and 6, 7 are here implemented as microcontrollers or microprocessors 4, 5 and 6, 7 and should measure the distance traveled by integrating the vehicle speed over the travel time. Here, each distance measuring device 4, 5 or 6, 7 can measure the vehicle speed directly from a vehicle controller, such as an engine controller, by means of a speed sensor and by mea...

Abstract

A vehicle information system for a motor vehicle is equipped with at least two engines, with at least two vehicle controllers each allocated to an engine. Each vehicle controller exhibits at least two distance measuring devices, which are designed to acquire the distances covered by the motor vehicle with the respective engine, a current consumption acquisition device, which is designed to acquire the current consumption of the respective engine, and an output device, which is designed to output the acquired distances and acquired current consumption.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle information system for an automobile having at least two driving devices. The invention also relates to vehicles and methods of providing information. Background technique [0002] In the development of modern automobiles, improving efficiency and reducing automobile fuel consumption are one of the most important research and development goals of automotive engineers. The possibility of optimizing vehicle fuel consumption lies in the integration of different transmission types in one vehicle. This also refers to so-called hybrid vehicles. For example, it is possible to combine a conventional gasoline or diesel drive with a gas drive. However, it is also possible, for example, to combine gasoline or diesel drives with electric drives based on fuel cells or batteries. [0003] In addition, for the average car driver, he needs to know the mileage and, for example, the fuel consumption of the car during or after driv...
