That's the instant read out, that's how it works. It varies all over the place depending on if you are on the gas or coasting.

There are four types of read-out's available. You can switch between them by pressing the "Info" button. To reset the "avg" you hold down on the "Info" button.

The four types are:
1. Driving Time (ET)
2. Average Vehicle Speed
3. Average Fuel Consumption
4. Momentary Fuel Consumption

I would highly recommend that an owner should read the owner's manual.

It is a good way to be introduced (or re-introduced) to the features of the vehicle.
