Trip 1 & 2: Trip Data + Battery Gauge
+ Fuel Gauge
Engage
Engage provides separate gauges for engine
power and high voltage battery power in
kilowatts (kW). The engine power gauge fill
is white and the high voltage battery power
gauge fill is blue. You can also see an
instantaneous fuel economy gauge. When
your vehicle is operating on battery power
only, you will see EV displayed and the
gauges will appear in blue. Note:
Hold OK to reset average fuel
economy.
Empower
Empower provides a power demand gauge
in kilowatts (kW) which includes an engine
on or off threshold. •
When your vehicle is operating with
battery power only (below the threshold),
you will see EV displayed and the gauge
fill is blue.
• When your vehicle is operating with both
the engine and the high voltage battery
providing power the gauge fill is white.

•
When power demand surpasses the
amber indicator, this level of demand and
associated fuel economy displays in
amber.
• When the engine is on, reducing power
demand to less than the threshold will
allow the engine to turn off.
You can also see an instantaneous fuel
economy gauge.
Note: Hold OK to reset average fuel
economy.
MyView

•
Accessory Power— Indicates electrical
power demands from your vehicle ’s
accessory systems. Accessories use
power but do not contribute to propelling
your vehicle. The gauge separately
displays power demand in kilowatts (kW)
for climate and other accessories.
Climate includes the power being used
by high voltage climate control
components such as the electric A/C
compressor. Other includes all power
being used by the low voltage
accessories (cabin fans, headlights and
heated seats).
• Coolant Temp – Indicates engine coolant
temperature. At normal operating
temperature, the level indicator will be
white and will be in the normal range
(between H and C). If the engine coolant
temperature exceeds the normal range,
the level indicator will change to red to
indicate that the engine is overheating.
Stop your vehicle as soon as safely
possible, turn your vehicle off and let the
engine cool. •
Tach rpm x 1000 — When the gasoline
engine is running, the tachometer gauge
displays the engine speed in revolutions
per minute (RPM). When your vehicle is
operating on battery power only with the
engine off, EV displays and the
tachometer is greyed out.
Note: The trip data, and average fuel
economy cannot be reset in MyView.

Provides trip odometer, trip average fuel
economy and trip timer.
Distance traveled on battery power only with
the engine off is shown in blue next to total
trip distance.

Efficiency Leaves
Efficiency leaves indicate short term driving
efficiency measured over the last few
minutes. The more leaves and vines that
appear on the display, the better your fuel
economy. Leaves and vines will occasionally
appear and disappear to indicate a change
in your driving efficiency.
Flowers appear on the efficiency leaves
screen in addition to the leaves and vines.
The flowers indicate long term driving
efficiency. The more flowers that appear on
the display, the more efficiently you have
driven. Once earned, the flowers will remain
unless reset, unlike the leaves, which come
and go as your short term fuel economy
changes. This feature can be reset in the information
displays settings menu under Driving History.
See (page 110).
Fuel History
From left to right this view includes an
instantaneous fuel economy gauge, historical
fuel economy data and average fuel
economy. The historical data represents an
average over time intervals of either 1, 2 or
6 minutes, with the leftmost interval being
the most recent. Shown at the bottom of the
view is the total time duration for the 5
intervals. You can select total duration in the
options menu. Intervals shown in grey color
are from the previous drive. The blue
horizontal line represents the average fuel
economy value shown to the right. Note:
Hold
OK to reset average fuel
economy.
Coach
This view provides a comparison of your
recent acceleration, braking and cruising
behavior, then recommends the most
efficient use of energy under present
conditions. The horizontal bars fill from left
to right with best behavior and appear blue
when at least half full. When the bars are less
than half full, the color is amber, suggesting
that you need a change in your driving
behavior to achieve better energy efficiency.
Note: Fuel Economy will be impacted by your
use of brakes, accelerator and accessories,
as well as environmental conditions such as
hills and weather.
