Abstract
A method and a system for indicating a fuel efficiency in a vehicle is provided that includes a density sensor configured to measure the density of a fuel mixture stored in a fuel tank. In addition, a controller is configured to derive the mix ratio related to the fuel mixture via the density measured by the density sensor and change a reference value of a fuel calculation logic based on the mix ratio. In addition, the controller is configured to determine the fuel efficiency based on the changed reference value.
