Abstract

Disclosed herein are a method and a system for displaying a distance to empty (traveling range) of a vehicle, capable of updating the distance to empty more quickly by reducing an amount of computation for calculating the distance to empty (traveling range) of the vehicle. The method includes calculating a distance to empty reachable with current energy of a vehicle based on status information of the vehicle and displaying the calculated distance to empty on a display; and recalculating a distance to empty by reflecting only changed pieces of the status information of the vehicle to update the distance to empty, and replacing the distance to empty displayed on the display with the updated distance to empty.
