This is true, but the non-nav models lack the tech to know which way they are facing, as the info is taken from the nav unit.

5 hour round trip from Kent to Bedford last night - traffic at M25 awful going there and coming back!

One sodding lane entering the bridge ffs!

Mpg dropped like a stone in the traffic, at one point in the journey I had a 650 mile range lol

Anywho, averaged 57.7 on the way up, 55.6 on the way back using cc for a bit when idiots actually manage 70 in the fast lane lol

That's very much on a par with my Leon diesel... Not making my decision on my next car any easier.
