Odometer
Located in the bottom of the information display. Registers the accumulated distance your vehicle has traveled.
Battery Gauge:
Note:   For Energi vehicles there are two versions of the battery gauge. When your vehicle is in hybrid mode, a simple battery graphic displays your battery information. When your vehicle is in plug-in power mode, an enhanced battery graphic displays your battery information.
The high voltage battery gauge provides Charge Fill (State of Charge), Charge Assist and Regen Active information.
Charge Fill (Hybrid Mode)
The fill level, or State of Charge indicates the amount of energy stored in the high voltage battery as a percent of total energy capacity. The level will increase or decrease as the battery charges and discharges during normal operation.
Charge Fill (Energi Plug-in Power Mode)
The fill level indicates the amount of energy stored in the high voltage battery which is available for Plug-in Power Mode. A full fill represents the total amount of energy you can get from an external charge (plugging your vehicle in). When the fill reaches empty your vehicle will automatically enter Hybrid Mode.
Charge Assist
The up and down arrows provide information about the energy going into and out of the high voltage battery. The up arrow above the battery indicates battery charging such as from regenerative braking. The down arrow below the battery indicates battery discharging to provide power for propulsion or vehicle accessories.
Regen Active
A circular arrow symbol appears in the center of the battery gauge when energy is being recaptured through the regenerative braking system.
This feature can be switched on or off in the information displays settings menu.   See   General Information
Fuel Gauge:
Note:   The fuel gauge may vary slightly when your vehicle is moving or on a gradient.
Switch the ignition on. The fuel gauge will indicate approximately how much fuel is left in the fuel tank. The arrow adjacent to the fuel pump symbol indicates on which side of your vehicle the fuel filler door is located.
The needle should move toward F when you refuel your vehicle. If the needle points to E after adding fuel, this indicates your vehicle needs service soon.
After refueling some variability in needle position is normal:
  • It may take a short time for the needle to reach F after leaving the gas station. This is normal and depends upon the slope of pavement at the gas station.
  • The fuel amount dispensed into the tank is a little less or more than the gauge indicated. This is normal and depends upon the slope of pavement at the gas station.
  • If the gas station nozzle shuts off before the tank is full, try a different gas pump nozzle.
Low Fuel Reminder
A low fuel reminder triggers when the fuel gauge needle is at 1/16th.
Variations:

Driving type (fuel economy conditions)   Fuel gauge position   Distance-to-empty  
Highway driving   1/16th   35–80 mi (56–129 km)
Severe duty driving (trailer towing, extended idle)   1/16th   35 mi (56 km)

Brake Coach Display:
The Brake Coach appears after the vehicle has come to a stop. It coaches you to brake in a manner which maximizes the amount of energy returned through the regenerative braking system. The percent displayed is an indication of the regenerative braking efficiency with 100% representing the maximum amount of energy recovery.
This feature can be switched on or off in the information displays settings menu.   See   General Information
Trip Summary:
The Trip Summary displays upon shutting off your vehicle. The information is cumulative over the last trip. A new trip begins each time you start your vehicle (when the Ready to Drive message comes on).
  • Distance - Displays the total distance traveled, distance traveled on battery power only (EV distance) and Regen distance. Regen distance is the estimated range gained from energy recaptured through regenerative braking.
  • Energy Use - Displays the average fuel economy. In addition for Energi, displays the total electrical energy used while in Plug-in Power Mode in kilowatt hours (kWh).
  • Brake Score - The percent displayed is an indication of the regenerative braking efficiency for the trip.
Note:   Corresponding trip efficiency leaves appear on the right information display upon shutting off your Hybrid vehicle. On Energi vehicles the trip efficiency leaves are shown on the right information display when the vehicle operates in Hybrid Mode for the entire trip. For trips with Plug-in Power Mode operation an estimate of your EV Range/Full Charge is provided along with a listing of factors and their contributions to this estimate. See Next Full Charge under Right Information Display in this chapter.

Fuel Economy
Vehicle Range
Vehicle range indicates the estimated distance your vehicle will travel with the energy currently onboard. The range is displayed at the bottom of the screen with gasoline range shown in white and electric range (Energi only) shown in blue.
  • Gasoline Range: Is the estimated distance to empty based on the fuel remaining in the tank.
  • Electric Range: Is the estimated distance you can travel in Plug-In Power Mode with the engine off. This range is based on a calculation determined by the amount of energy stored in the high voltage battery as a result of charging while plugged in and the energy being used while driving.
The amount of energy being used while driving is affected by:
  • Mild or aggressive acceleration or braking.
  • Your vehicle speed.
  • Your use of accessories such as climate control.
  • The ambient temperature and other weather conditions.
  • City or highway driving.
  • Road grades.
Note:   It is normal for vehicle range estimates to vary due to changes in average energy usage. This is why you will typically see different range estimates each time you fill up your fuel tank or fully charge your battery.
Trip Efficiency Leaves
Trip Efficiency Leaves display upon shutting off your Hybrid vehicle. For Energi vehicles the trip efficiency leaves are displayed only when the vehicle operates in Hybrid for the entire trip. The number of leaves represent the average for the last trip. A new trip begins each time you start your vehicle (when the Ready to Drive message comes on). Corresponding Trip Summary data displays on the left information display.
Next Full Charge
The Next Full Charge display is shown upon shutting off your Energi vehicle whenever your vehicle operates in Plug-in Power Mode for a portion of your trip.
Miles or kilometers per full charge
This is an estimate of the EV Range you would see if you plugged in and fully charged your vehicle right now. The estimate is based on your energy usage while driving. Energy usage is affected by your driving style and route, climate control use, outside temperature and other factors.
Energy usage effects (+/-)
A green bar indicates a positive effect on your EV range per full charge estimate. An amber bar indicates a negative effect. The bigger the bar the bigger the effect on your estimate.
  • Driving style/route – This includes energy used to propel your vehicle based on your driving style and route. Your driving style includes how fast you drive and whether your acceleration and braking is mild or aggressive. Your route includes factors such as the amount of city or highway driving and road grades.
  • Climate control use – This includes energy used by your vehicle’s high voltage climate control components such as the electric A/C compressor and the electric heater.
  • Outside temp./other – This includes energy losses due to outside temperature and other conditions which reduce vehicle system efficiency. Energy used for low voltage accessories such as cabin fans, heated seats, headlights, etc. is also included.
