Question type: General

I have a Nissan sentra 2016 and would like to know how it
calculates average speed. Does it factor in time sitting
while the car is running or only when it's moving?

I could be wrong on this I'll double check with a Nissian engineer next week. It should be based on wheel rotation (motion only) not time / hours of engine run time.

Thanks guys, if you could verify that for me I'd love to know for sure. Unless you're absolutely certain and no checking is needed.

If time where a factor, it would read the number of hrs. the car is turned on. Moving at 0 mph X any number = 0. Doubt 0 mph could be a average speed, unless it is a show car.

We are in a brand new 2019 Nissan Sentra with 592 miles on it. We’ve been driving for 5.5 hours @ 60- 80 and 45 minute stop. Average Speed reads 30 mph????
