A vehicle () comprising a wading information display () and a wading depth sensor, the display showing an elevation of a vehicle on which is superimposed the current wading depth. The display may also indicate simultaneously the maximum wading depth calculated according to the ride height of the vehicle, the inclination of the vehicle by inclination of the displayed elevation, and an advisory speed according to wading depth and/or vehicle inclination. 1. A vehicle comprising a display configured to display an elevation of a vehicle and a wading depth indicator , said display being arranged to show the current water level on said elevation.2. The vehicle according to further comprising a memory and a processor claim 1 , the memory containing a program configured to run on the processor to calculate the maximum wading depth of the vehicle from the vehicle ride height claim 1 , and to display the maximum wading depth on said display.3. The vehicle of claim 2 , wherein a line indicative of maximum wading depth is superimposed on said elevation.4. The vehicle of claim 3 , wherein the position of said line on said elevation changes according to a selected ride height.5. The vehicle of claim 2 , wherein maximum wading depth and current water level are simultaneously displayed.6. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the current water level is displayed in increments which decrease as the wading depth approaches the maximum wading depth.7. The vehicle of claim 1 , wherein current water level is indicated by a color wash.8. The vehicle of claim 1 , further including a vehicle inclination sensor claim 1 , said display showing the elevation at a real-time inclination with respect to the current water level.9. The vehicle of claim 8 , wherein said display is adapted to indicate the vehicle inclination in pitch and roll.10. The vehicle of claim 9 , wherein said display includes a side elevation and/or an end elevation of a vehicle and wherein the end elevation displayed is the lower ...
