NO, that cannot be done on a Lexus; on my former Cadillac and my GTO it CAN be done!!
Going back to the screen shot posted in the original post, on my 2013 RX I have an UPDATE button to the left of the CLEAR button. When pressed, it starts a new bar that keeps track of fule consumption from that point on.

ALL American cars I have had with a "trip computer" have had a "ZERO" you could use at any time starting my my Ford Aerostar van in 1989!
Hmmm...maybe my 2013 450h is different. Mine only gives a single MPG number. Never bothered to reset it but I know it's showing a different number than the "average fuel consumption after refueling".
