You could select/bring up the active economy meter on the dash speedo view window. Personally, I would rather lead-foot it around and then just ‘bite the bullet’ at the gas pump (I typically run the ‘range’ meter or the ‘tire presure’ image above the odometer).

My shop manual lists ‘gross vehicle weight’ as: 5534 lbs. The performance of my ZDX (compared to past vehicles with a similar power-to-weight ratio) thus makes me wonder if the advertised HP rating (300?) is actually quite conservative (?).

Learning something new everyday (I DID think 5500# seemed a bit high).
Advertized HP subterfuge really hit the apex in the mid-60s musclecar era (so outrageous insurance rates wouldn’t scare away customers). 427 ci Ford side-oiler & Mopar hemi V-8s rated at less than 400 hp, likely putting out more like 600!
