Gauges (Virtual)

Electric Motor Temperature 

The electric motor temperature gauge displays the current detected temperature of the electric motor. If the electric motor temperature is too hot or too cold, a warning message will display in the message center indicating limited vehicle performance.

High Voltage Battery (Charge) 

The high voltage battery gauge displays the current high voltage battery state of charge. One hundred percent represents the full amount of charge obtained from plugging the vehicle into a charging source. When the battery power is low, the gauge illuminates in amber, and when the battery power is depleted, the gauge illuminates in red.

When a navigation route is selected, a symbol illuminates on the gauge to indicate the battery charge needed to reach the selected destination or the next charging station.

High Voltage Battery Temperature 

The high voltage battery temperature gauge displays the current detected battery temperature. If the battery temperature is too hot or too cold, a warning message will display in the message center indicating limited vehicle performance.

Power (Regenerative) 

The power gauge displays the amount of power going to the wheels when accelerating or maintaining speed, and the amount of power regenerated and returned to the high voltage battery when slowing down or braking. The inner blue line on the gauge represents the percentage of maximum power available. If the system limits the power available, the blue line will display less than 100%.

Speedometer 

The IPC receives the vehicle speed data from the PCM. The PCM receives the wheel speed data from the ABS. The PCM uses axle ratio and tire size stored in the vehicle configuration file along with wheel speed inputs to generate a vehicle speed signal.

The IPC provides a tolerance that allows the speed indication to display between 3% below and 7% above the actual vehicle speed. This means that with an actual vehicle speed of 97 km/h (60 mph), the speedometer can indicate between 94-103 km/h (58-64 mph). Incorrect tire size or tire size configuration could potentially affect the speedometer accuracy.
