I EV energy economy
Distance to Empty (DTE) or Range E is the estimated distance an EV can be driven with the remaining electric energy until the battery reaches zero. DTE can vary depending on the selected drive mode, current driving conditions, traffic, driving patterns, air conditioner or heater use, and how much cargo you are carrying.
EV Instrument Cluster Overview
Distance to Empty (DTE) / Range
Your vehicle’s instrument cluster & indicator light locations may differ from those in the illustrations. For more information on the instrument cluster, the LCD Warning Messages and the function of all indicator and warning lights, please refer to section 5 of the Owner ’s Manual.
Illustrations are for demonstration purposes only. Some indicators and warning lights may not appear in illustrations. On the vehicle, they may appear in the LCD.

REMINDERS:
•
If DTE displays “Zero Miles,” you need to charge the vehicle immediately
•
Most electric vehicles can drive an additional t wo to five miles depending on driving conditions
•
Distance to empt y may depend on many factors such as the charge amount of the high voltage bat ter y, weather, temperature, durabilit y of the bat ter y, geographical features, and driving st yle
•Operating the climate control system may reduce the Distance to Empt y
•When decelerating or driving downhill, regenerative braking charges the high voltage bat ter y which minimizes energy loss and increases the Distance to Empt y or Range
•When you set a destination via the on-board navigation system, DTE is calculated based on the route selected. By set ting a final destination, DTE accuracy improves. By knowing the final location, the vehicle can bet ter predict the amount of bat ter y energy it will need to reach that destination
•When operating the climate control, use the DRIVER ONLY function to conser ve energy
•In cold weather, use scheduled heating to reduce the amount of energy consumption
•In the EV Set tings, select WINTER MODE to increase the bat ter y temperature in cold weather

Ready indicator light – Illuminates when the vehicle is ready to drive. When the ready indicator light is blinking, a malfunction has occurred. Have an authorized Kia dealer address the concern as soon as possible.
EV Service warning light – Illuminates when there is a malfunction related to the electric vehicle control system. Have an authorized Kia dealer address the concern as soon as possible.
Power down warning light – Illuminates when the vehicle’s speed and per formance are limited for the safety of the electric vehicle.
Charging indicator light – Shows the charging status of the high-voltage battery. When charging, the green indicator turns on. The indicator turns off when not charging.
High-voltage battery low level warning light – Illuminates when the high-voltage battery charge level is insufficient.
Regenerative brake warning lights (when both indicators are lit) –
Illuminates when the regenerative brake system is not functioning correctly.
A State of Charge (SOC) gauge
The State of Charge gauge displays the high-voltage battery charge status.
B Power / Charge Gauge
The Power / Charge gauge provides information on the energy consumption rate of the vehicle and the charge status of the regenerative brakes.
•POWER – Shows the energy consumption rate of the vehicle
when driving uphill or accelerating. The more electric energy used, the higher the gauge level
•CHARGE – Shows the charging status of the battery when it is being charged by the regenerative brakes. The more electric energy charged, the lower the gauge level
C Distance to Empty (DTE)
DTE is the estimated distance the vehicle can be driven with the remaining high-voltage battery level. The DTE will vary according to the selected drive mode and Climate Control settings.
For more information, refer to the Owner ’s Manual.
Energy Consumption
There are several factors that contribute to your electric vehicle’s energy consumption, including maintenance of your vehicle, driving style, weather, durability of the battery and environmental conditions.
Below are tips to help reduce energy consumption:
•Use Scheduled Climate settings to preheat the vehicle before driving
•In EV Settings, select the Winter Mode charge settings
•Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular maintenance
•Don’t “ride” the brake pedal
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly and at a moderate rate
•Use the climate control system less often. Use the Driver Only setting
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight in your vehicle
•Ensure wheels are aligned correctly
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
For more information, refer to section 1 of the Owner ’s Manual.

For more information on driving modes, refer to section 6 in the Owner ’s Manual or contact your local dealership.
Drive Mode Integrated Control System
There are four distinct driving modes. Press the Drive Mode button A to select the desired mode.
ECO – This mode can help enhance electric energy efficiency by managing battery usage. The acceleration response may be slightly reduced in this mode. ECO mode automatically changes the vehicle to 2WD or AWD depending on the road conditions
NORMAL – This mode balances drivability and efficiency. Normal mode automatically changes the vehicle to 2WD or AWD depending on the road conditions
SPORT – This mode provides enhanced acceleration and dynamic drivability. The electric energy efficiency may decrease
in this mode
SNOW - Press and hold the Drive Mode button to enter Snow mode. Snow mode automatically changes the vehicle to 2WD or AWD depending on the road conditions
An indicator in the instrument cluster will illuminate to show which drive mode you have selected (no indicator will appear for the NORMAL mode).
