Abstract
In a process and device for visual display of information in motor vehicles with an electronically controllable display, the display is controlled in such a manner that at least two sets of information, having an interrelated effect, are displayed as a comparison by graphical representation. Examples of information having an interrelated effect are the value pairs—range/distance, current fuel consumption/average fuel consumption, tank content/range, total travel time/time traveled. In this respect the information is displayed at the same place alternating with the same type of graphics, but with different labels.
