Default Instant FE in 06 HCH?

From what I have read, it seems it has it. Could someone clear this up for me ... is it only on the Navigation? I don't see a bar such as the 03-05's have in any of the pictures, but I do have the trait of occasionally not seeing what is right in front of me (I think it is hereditary lol). A picture would be great, as long as no one would be endangering themselves or others . Thanks in advance for the clarification! Can't wait until I can get one!!!

Its there. I think its one of the scroll thru options in the area of temp, trip A,B and such. Im sure I will be corrected if wrong.

I dont own a hybrid. But I know its there. Honda saw fit to screw the owners of the others Civics out of this little feature in the 06's. Its not even in the Navi like the Accords. I would have thought if you spent the money on a Navi in a car with high mpg in mind they would have built it into the Navi. As they brag about there greenness mind set in all there propaganda. And then with hold a valuble tool to reinforce it. All the datas there.

it's the top leftmost gauge. It has a dual pupose: engine temperature and instant FE. You switch between them with one button (to the left of the steering wheel).

Don't worry. When I test drive the civic hybrid, I could get it to display the instant FE and that made it hard to see what I was doing. After doing a lot of reading, I found it!

Thanks,
Stephane.

It's the bar graph on the left of the display. Can be toggled between IFE and coolant temp,
