Energy consumption / generation indicator
Energy consumption
On switching on the ignition, your vehicle
neither consumes nor generates energy in its
electric traction system: the needle is in the
"neutral" position (provided that the heating and
air conditioning are off).
"Eco" zone
A system that informs the driver of the level of energy consumption or generation of the main battery.
"Neutral" position"Charge" zone
The needle moves to the right in proportion to
the energy consumption by the vehicle.
The needle is in this zone when the vehicle is
used so as to moderate electric consumption
and optimise its range.The needle moves to the left in proportion to
the level of charge sent to the main battery,
during periods of deceleration and braking.
In cold weather, the capacity for
regeneration via braking is reduced.
