Hybrid related information in the
driver display
The driver display shows different instruments
and functions depending on the drive mode
selected. The instruments can help the driver to
drive the car while maintaining the best possible
driving economy.
The car also stores statistics of journeys made,
which can be viewed in the form of a block dia-
gram. See the section "Show trip statistics in the
centre display".
Hybrid gauge
The hybrid gauge shows in different ways the
relationship between how much power is being
taken from the electric motor and how much
power is available.
Hybrid-unique symbols
Indicates current level for available
electric motor power. If the symbol is
filled in, it means that the electric
motor is in use.
If the symbol is not filled in, it means
that the electric motor is not in use.
Indicates the power level when the
combustion engine starts. If the symbol
is filled in, it means that the combus-
tion engine is in use.
Indicates the power level when the
internal combustion engine is due to
start. If the symbol is not filled in, it
means that the combustion engine is
not in use.
Indicator that shows that the hybrid
battery is being charged, e.g. if the
brake pedal is gently depressed.
Information from trip computer: dis-
tance to empty battery, eDTE (Electri-
cal Distance To Empty) indicator.
Shows approximate distance with
remaining energy quantity in the hybrid battery.
Since it is difficult to anticipate driving style and
other factors that affect the range for electric
operation, Volvo has decided to use a start value
for eDTE when the car is fully charged. The start
value indicates an up-to figure instead of a fore-
cast for the range for electric operation. The dif-
ference in start value between
Hybrid
and
Pure
is due to the car being allowed to use more
energy from the hybrid battery in
Pure
mode, as
well as that the car changes over to ECO climate.
The hybrid battery gauge shows available
electric motor power
The hybrid battery gauge shows how much
energy there is in the battery. This energy is used
for the electric motor, but also to cool or heat the
car.
Driver-requested power
The pointer in the hybrid gauge indicates the
amount of engine power requested by the driver
