Battery gauge
This displays the high voltage battery state of charge. The value in the
centre is an estimate of how far the
vehicle can be driven on the
remaining charge based on driving
habits and conditions learned over several days.
The maximum value is shown above
the display and the minimum value
below the display. The values
indicate the longest and shortest
possible range as estimated from
current vehicle conditions and climate
settings.
The mileage estimate and maximum
and minimum numbers are affected
by climate control system usage.
Estimated range may increase or
decrease based on changes in
climate control energy consumption.
A trend bar on the far left indicates
how recent driving habits, vehicle
conditions and climate settings are
affecting the range prediction.
When the high voltage battery state of charge is very low the estimated
range value in the centre will change
to Low . Maximum and minimum
ranges will no longer be displayed.
Additional alerts may display and a
sound may also be heard at low state
of charge.
