This shows the electric output from the
electric motor, e.g. when driving using the
electric motor or in boost mode.
When the motor is switched on, the display is at :. When driving solely on electricity,
the display fills up from :to; depending
on the power output demanded as a result
of pressing the accelerator pedal.
If the display has reached limit ;, addi-
tional power output can only be provided by
the combustion engine. The combustion
engine starts. If the display is approaching
limit ;and you remove your foot from the
accelerator pedal, the display empties
again. The combustion engine is not
switched on. At low speeds, you can
thereby control the electric drive usage so
that you only drive in electric mode.

This shows the recuperated energy which is
stored in the high-voltage battery as elec-
trical energy.
When the display reaches limit ?, the max-
imum recuperative braking power has been exhausted. The conventional brakes are
activated.
