ELECTRIC VEHICLE
INFORMATION
Power Flow The Power Flow information for
your plug-in hybrid vehicle is
available through the Home
screen or under Apps.
Vehicle Operational States
Power will flow to or from the front and
rear wheels depending on operational
state and drive conditions.
• Idling: The vehicle is running and in Park
(P). The engine and, or the high voltage
battery are on.
• Electric Driving: The vehicle is running
and in Drive (D) or Neutral (N). The
high voltage battery provides power to
the wheels.
• Hybrid Driving: The vehicle is running
and in Drive (D) or Neutral (N). The
engine and the high voltage battery
provide power to the wheels.
• Engine Driving: The vehicle is running
and in Drive (D) or Neutral (N). The
engine provides power to the wheels.
• Regenerative Braking: The vehicle is
running in Drive gear and is slowing
down. Power captured by the
regenerative braking system is sent
back to the high voltage battery.
• Charging: The vehicle is plugged in and
the high voltage battery is being
charged.
Engine On Due To
The following conditions help to explain
why the engine is on, and what you can do
to allow all electric operation.
