Abstract

A display device is provided with a fuel gauge () that displays the amount of fuel remaining in a fuel tank () (remaining amount) of a hybrid vehicle () provided with an engine () that consumes fuel supplied from the fuel tank () and generates power by driving wheels () or rotating a motor (). The hybrid vehicle is provided with a non-traveling/non-power generating mode, or in other words, a fuel consumption mode or an engine maintenance mode in which the engine () is forced to run and consume fuel for purposes other than traveling or generating power. Of the fuel () displayed in the fuel gauge (), the region () corresponding to the amount of fuel consumed in the non-traveling/non-power generating mode is displayed so as to be distinguishable by color from another region ().
