What does the abbreviation "ODO" mean in the vehicle's speedometer?

If you look at the speedometer in the car, the abbreviation "ODO" on. But what does “ODO” actually mean? Anyone with a driver's license and a car will be familiar with most of the vehicle's functions and displays. Of course there is one or the other that you cannot deal with immediately or do not know what it is good for, but this does not actually have a major impact on driving a car. The abbreviation “ODO” is definitely something like that too. It's in the speedometer and many don't know what it stands for.

The odometer in detail!

What does the abbreviation "ODO" mean in the vehicle's speedometer?

The abbreviation "ODO" stands for odometer. The word comes from the Greek word "hodos", which means something like "way". From this it can be deduced that odometer means something like "odometer". It is a counter that measures the distance traveled by the vehicle. A distinction is made between two lines.

  1. One line shows the total distance covered (the mileage) from the vehicle since the meter was installed.
  2. The second line shows the covered track (Trip kilometers) since the counter was set to 0. A corresponding button must be pressed for a reset.

The benefit of the odometer!

The odometer is not only an instrument that shows the distance traveled by the vehicle, but also an indicator of the condition of the vehicle. Particular attention is paid to this when it comes to the market for used vehicles. You can also determine when the next one Maintenance is due. Another benefit is that with the help of the odometer, the fuel consumption can calculate, unless you already have a corresponding display for it in the vehicle. By the way, the main counter cannot be set to 0, only the counter for the trip kilometers.
