Information display of EV driving
One of the following 2 information in the items of “HV System Indi-
cator” in “Meter Customize” settings can be selected to display in
the left upper corner of the Hybrid System Indicator. (P. 253)
“EV Energy”
The percentage of the remain-
ing hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) that can be used for EV
driving is displayed.
Becomes 100% when the hybrid
battery (traction battery) is fully
charged.
“EV Distance”
The approximate distance that
can be driven using only the
electric motor (traction motor).
(P. 1 1 9 )
When the air conditioning sys-
tem is operating, the icon dis-
play changes to and the
driving range with the air condi-
tioning system on is displayed.
■When operation of each function stops
●The Hybrid System Indicator stops operating in the following situations.
• The “READY” indicator is not illuminated.
• The shift position is not D or B.
●The Eco score and “ECO Accelerator Guidance” stop operating in the fol-
lowing situations.
• The Hybrid System Indicator is not operating.
• Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range is being used.
• The speed limiter system is being used and the vehicle speed is approxi-
mately the limit speed or higher.

PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47C99E_(EE)■Remaining charge amount warning of hybrid battery (traction battery)
●The buzzer sounds intermittently when the hybrid battery (traction battery)
remains without charging while the shift position is in N, or the remaining
charge amount drops below a certain level.
If the remaining charge amount drops further, the buzzer sounds continu-
ously.
●When a warning message is shown on the multi-information display and the
buzzer sounds, follow the instructions displayed on the screen to perform
troubleshooting.
■About the Eco score
●After starting off, Eco score display does not start until the vehicle speed
exceeds approximately 20 km/h (12 mph).
●In addition to the vehicle driving status, the Eco score also evaluates the air
conditioning system usage condition (P. 247). The score displayed when
the hybrid system stops is the total result of the driving status after the
hybrid system starts and the air conditioning usage condition.
■“EV Energy” and “EV Distance” display
The rate at which the “EV Energy” and “EV Distance” remaining amount
decreases depends on the driving conditions of the vehicle. Also, the “EV
Energy” and “EV Distance” remaining amount may decrease due to system
power consumption even though the vehicle is not being driven.

◆“Drive Monitor 2”
The following information of EV driving is displayed.
Total average electricity con-
sumption
Indicates the total average
electricity consumption since
last reset until it is reset
again.
*1
EV driving range (without
using the air conditioning
system)
Indicates the estimated distance that can be driven using the cur-
rent remaining hybrid battery (traction battery). (P. 1 1 9 )
*2
EV driving range (with using the air conditioning system)
Indicates the estimated distance that can be driven using the cur-
rent remaining hybrid battery (traction battery) while using the air
conditioning system.
*2
Accumulated power generation quantity by the solar charging
system (if equipped)
Indicates the accumulated solar power generation quantity up
until now by the solar charging system.
*1: When “Electricity Consumption Reset” (P. 254) is performed, the data
of the total electricity consumption is deleted.
*2: The EV driving range may shorten even when not driving due to power
consumption by the system.

◆“Eco-Diary”
The history of the average electricity consumption, air conditioning
system load ratio (“A/C Load Ratio”)
*, distance traveled and aver-
age fuel consumption can be displayed in a table according to day
(“Daily”) or month (“Monthly”) units.
*: It indicates the percentage of the electricity consumed from the hybrid
battery (traction battery) that is consumed by the air conditioning sys-
tem.

Eco score (A/C score)
The current air conditioning system usage status is evaluated in 5
levels to determine whether it is Eco-friendly.
The evaluation changes according to the air conditioning system
usage status. When the power switch is turned off, the current total
driving score
*1 and advice*2 related to using the air conditioning
system are displayed. (P. 202)
Low score
*3
High score
Avoiding excessive use of the
air conditioning system and
using the air conditioning sys-
tem at the appropriate setting
according to the ambient tem-
perature and number of passen-
gers and with the S-FLOW
mode ( ) and “CLIMATE
PREFERENCE” will result in a
high evaluation.
*1: The Eco score (A/C score) is not evaluated for approximately 1 minute
after the power switch is turned to ON mode.
*2: This advice may not be displayed depending on the situation.
*3: For items not evaluated with an Eco score (A/C score), the display
reads 0.
