Abstract

Evaluation indication systems, methods, and programs are provided for a hybrid vehicle that is configured to travel in an HV mode with an internal combustion engine or in an EV mode without the internal combustion engine. The systems, methods, and programs display a current position of the hybrid vehicle on a map, acquire current evaluations of fuel consumption of the hybrid vehicle in current travel by unit sections, acquire previous evaluations of fuel consumption of the hybrid vehicle in previous travel by unit sections, and indicate current evaluation icons on the map, each of the icons being an EV icon or an HV icon. Each EV icon indicates that the hybrid vehicle has travelled within the corresponding unit section in the EV mode and each HV icon indicates that the hybrid vehicle has travelled within the corresponding unit section in the HV mode.
