Power indicator
(Rechargeable hybrid)
The power indicator shows in real time the power demanded from the vehicle.
There are 3 zones:


POWER High power demand, using the combined capabilities of the petrol
engine and the electric motor.
The slider is located in this zone
during more dynamic driving phases
when high levels of performance are
being demanded.
ECO Optimal use of energy (internal combustion or electric).
The slider is located in this zone
when driving under electric power
and when optimal use is being made
of the petrol engine, both accessible
by adopting a suitable driving style.
A symbol indicates the threshold at
which the petrol engine will restart.
The driver can therefore moderate
their acceleration to remain in electric
driving mode.
CHARGE Energy recovery for partly recharging the traction battery.
The slider is located in this zone
during deceleration: taking your foot
off the accelerator pedal or braking. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

reserve in miles or kms.
â–º

T

o use the energy reserve, choose the
Electric driving mode in the mode selector.
If the requested range exceeds the
available range (not recommended), the
internal combustion engine starts to recharge
the traction battery up to the requested
threshold. This leads to excessive fuel
consumption.
i-Toggles
