Default Is there a fuel display of Miles/Km's until Empty?

Is there a setting or viewing option on a 2014 Lexus IS250 that display how many Miles/Km's until the tank is empty? This is a standard feature on most BMW's, Mercedes, Volvos and even VW's?

Yes, there is a "range" display.

In my Fsport, when I move the Tac to the right, I can see range in one the pages. I believe you can see that on the NAV screen as well.

With the tac centered use the up/down arrows on the right side of the steering wheel. That will toggle through several items, one of which is range.

Oh ok i thought the range meant average miles/km you get out of a full tank not actual distance until tank is empty, as i was used to seeing a fuel tank symbol next to the km/miles in my previous car.

thanks

In my testing in trying to find this out also. Once the range shows 0 miles is when the fuel gauge shows a blank / empty status bar. However, upon filing up at that point ended up being around 15 or so gallons at the pump. Given that the car has a 17.4 gallon tank. There appears to be a 2-2.5 gallon reserved in place before the tank truly 100% empty after the range is 0 / fuel gauge shows empty.
