Hi,

That should be your average speed reading.

you have to unlock the OBC if you wish to see current /realtime speed on digital cluster readout.
a procedure for doing so is written up here somewhere

Average speed... did u torn off 4x4 or u have mistake somewhere?
If u need real speed or fuel real comsumption or to see battery level while driving u have to unlock secret codes.... key on 1 push and hold right button untill it shows OK then left and then I do not remember but I always remember when I am sitting in the car
I like to see real diesel consumption when I am throttling

That's a high average. You must do a lot of freeway driving at high speeds.

Here u can see the real diesel consumption at that speed 200km through 'secret codes'! It shows 26l! Average is about 20l when u r driving 200km per hour!
