Fuel gauges provide the driver with a precise overview of the current fuel level. These gauges are often digital and integrated into the dashboard to ensure an easy-to-read display.
Modern fuel gauges use sensors in the tank to provide accurate data, minimising the risk of misjudging the fuel level.
A reliable fuel gauge is essential for long journeys as it helps to refuel on time and avoid running out of fuel.
They are usually electronic and can inform the driver of the current fuel level with visual displays or digital displays.
Some fuel gauges can also offer other functions, such as a trip meter or an odometer.
