hour (mph).
Odometer
The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in either
kilometers or miles.
Trip Odometer

Battery Gauge (High
Voltage)
Enhanced Battery Gauge
This displays the high voltage
battery state of charge. The value in
the center 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 Max and Min values above and
below the display indicate the
longest and shortest possible range
as estimated from current vehicle
conditions and climate settings. The mileage estimate and Max and
Min 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 estimates
how recent driving habits,
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 center will
change to Low. Max and Min ranges
will no longer be displayed.
Additional alerts may display and a
sound may also be heard at low
state of charge.
Driver Efficiency Gauge
Modern Efficiency Gauge Shown,
Classic Similar
This gauge is a guide to driving in
an efficient manner.
Efficient Driving
. Classic layout: Keep the gauge
and leaf green.
. Modern layout: Keep the ball
green and in the center of the
gauge.
. Enhanced layout: Keep the outer
ring of the speedometer green.

Inefficient Driving/Aggressive
Braking
.Classic layout: The gauge and
leaf turn yellow.
. Modern layout: When driving
inefficiently, the ball turns yellow
and moves above the center of
the gauge. When braking
aggressively, the ball turns
yellow and moves below the
center of the gauge.
. Enhanced layout: The outer ring
of the speedometer turns yellow.
Power Indicator Gauge
The power indicator gauge is on the
right side of the display in the
Enhanced layout.
This gauge displays the
instantaneous charge and discharge
power flowing either into or out of
the high voltage battery. Maximum
discharge power is available when
the high voltage battery is fully
charged. During normal operation, a
slight reduction in discharge power
may occur as the high voltage
battery state of charge decreases.
The power indicator gauge value
shows the instantaneous power
used by the battery.
Regenerative Braking
When regenerative braking is active,
the regen battery icon with arrows
appears green. The power indicator
gauge value shows the amount of
instantaneous power being
regenerated.
Regenerative Power Limited
Regenerative power may be limited
when the high voltage battery is
near full charge or cold. The regen
battery icon will appear gray when limited, and a horizontal bar may
display on the gauge, at the level of
the vehicle’
s maximum regenerative
braking power.
Seat Belt Reminders
Driver Seat Belt Reminder
Light
There is a driver seat belt reminder
light on the instrument cluster.
When the vehicle is started, this
light flashes and a chime may come
on to remind the driver to fasten
their seat belt. Then the light stays
on solid until the belt is buckled.
This cycle may continue several
times if the driver remains or
becomes unbuckled while the
vehicle is moving.

Energy Detail
This screen displays how energy is
being used since the last time the
high voltage battery was fully
charged. It includes Driving and
Accessories, Climate Settings, and
Battery Conditioning. The circle
graph displays these percentages.
Energy Used and Distance Traveled
are also displayed.Range ImpactsThis screen provides an estimate of
the factors that influence energy
usage since the last full charge of
the high voltage battery. Each factor
is evaluated for energy gains or
losses, and the total equivalent
distance is indicated by the value on
the right side of the screen. All
values are reset after a complete
charge.
.
Technique includes speed,
acceleration, and braking. Lower
speeds will increase electric
vehicle technique miles, while
higher speeds will reduce them. .
Terrain includes road conditions,
such as hills, rain, and snow.
External factors like wind will
also positively or negatively
impact Terrain. Low tire pressure
will worsen Terrain performance.
. Climate Settings includes how
the heating and air conditioning
are used. Using Fan Only
settings will help reduce climate
setting losses. See “Climate
Controls”.
. Outside Temperature includes
the effect that hot or cold
ambient temperature has on the
battery performance and
propulsion system efficiency.
The individual vehicle range impacts
provide an understanding of how
energy usage is different from day
to day, even when traveling the
same route.

Energy Economy :
The Trip display
shows the current distance traveled,
in either kilometers (km) or
miles (mi), since the trip odometer
was last reset. The trip odometer
can be reset by pressing and
holding
Vwhile this display is

100 kilometers (kWh/100 km) or
miles per kWh. This number is
calculated based on the number of
kWh/100 km recorded since the last
time this menu item was reset. This
number reflects only the
approximate average electrical
energy economy that the vehicle
has right now, and will change as
driving conditions change. The
