  "textContent": "Coaching for driving operation for improving the fuel efficiency is provided. An instrument panel of the vehicle is structured to be a two-tier panel of an upper level and a lower level. A display means for displaying a color on a display unit disposed in the upper level is provided. If a predetermined driving operation by a driver is detected, a color to be displayed on the display unit is determined based on an operating state of the vehicle according to the detected driving operation. The color displayed on the display unit is changeable between a first color and a second color. The first color is established as a color indicating a fuel-efficient driving operation state. The second color is established as a color indicating a fuel-inefficient driving operation state. The color to be displayed is determined such that the color to be displayed gets closer to the first color as the detected driving operation becomes a more fuel-efficient driving operation state. Thus, for every driving operation, a driver can recognize whether his/her driving operation is fuel-efficient.",
