Fuel consumption histogramme
(Only with the touch screen tablet)
This graph represents the history of average fuel consumption figures. These figures are calculated over the last 30 minutes in periods of 5 minutes.
" 60 % Hybrid Us e" corresponds to 60 % of the cumulative running time with the addition of the Hybrid4 system and 40 % of the time with the Diesel engine only.
For more information on the trip computer, refer to the corresponding section.

 Press the end of the wiper control stalk to display the various tabs in succession.
- The current information tab with: ● t h e r a n g e , ● the current fuel consumption.
- Trip "1" with: ● the average speed, for the first trip. ● the average fuel consumption.
- Trip "2" with: ● the average speed, for the second trip. ● the average fuel consumption.
Tr i p s "1" and "2" are independent but their use is identical. For example, trip "1" can be used for daily figures, and trip "2" for monthly figures. - The energy flows. - The radio or media playing. - N a v i g a t i o n i n s t r u c t i o n s .

Reducing consumption / Fuel
QuestionAnswer
How can I optimise my fuel consumption? Give preference to AUTO mode as it selects in the best way the "driving energy source" to use in order to reduce fuel consumption. You should also adapt your driving style to the characteristics of hybrid vehicles to get the best out of it, for example by taking your foot off the accelerator pedal rather than braking and by anticipating decelerations which allows the recovery of "free" energy for charging the battery (entering a built-up area, stop at traffic lights, stop at halt signs, ...).
Why do I not manage to reduce my fuel consumption even though I often drive in ZEV (Zero Emissions Vehicle) mode?
It is not ZEV mode but AUTO mode that is the most appropriate for reducing fuel consumption, as it selects the best "driving energy source". ZEV mode (100% electric running) can reduce fuel consumption in some cases. However, recharging the traction battery has an energy cost. This is why we recommend using AUTO mode more often.
Why does the trip computer sometimes display the bars for 28 mpg (10 litres/100 km) in town? In traffic jams, the fuel consumption graph displayed may temporarily appear high when the distance covered is very low, but this generally has very little impact and the true average fuel consumption will remain low. In urban driving, your Hybrid4 will remain more efficient in terms of fuel consumption (by around 35%) compared to a conventional vehicle.
Why is my battery rarely fully charged? A partly charged battery is normal operation (4 to 5 bars on average in AUTO mode). This allows some capacity to be left free for the recovery for energy when going downhill or taking when your foot off the accelerator.
Why are there so may fuel alert messages when starting to use the reserve? To encourage you to refuel as soon as possible and to avoid loosing the possibility of all electric running.
