Range Rings and Charge Points (Energi
Only)
Shaded rings appear on the map when you
are driving in EV Now mode. The inner ring
with no shading indicates a safe range you
can travel using plug-in power only. The
lightly shaded outer band reflects areas you may or may not be able to reach while
in EV Now mode. If your destination is
within this band, your vehicle may operate
in Auto EV mode, running the engine as
needed. The darker shaded area, beyond
the rings, is not likely reachable using only
the vehicle's available plug-in energy.
The rings represent approximate ranges.
Actual route distances, road grades,
vehicle speed, accessory usage and other
conditions affect how far your vehicle can
travel in EV Now mode before recharging.You can select charging POI's so that you
can always see them on the map when the
scale is 5 mi (8 km) or lower.
