Virtual Engine Sound System
The Virtual Engine Sound System (VESS)
generates sound for pedestrians to hear
because there is no sound while the
Electric Vehicle (EV) is operating.
ś If the vehicle is in the ready (
)
mode and any gear other than P (Park)
is selected, the VESS will be operated.
ś When the gear is shifted to R
(Reverse), an additional warning
sound will be heard.
CAUTION
ś The vehicle is much quieter while
driving than a conventional gasoline-
powered vehicle. Be aware of your
surroundings and always drive safely.
ś After you park the vehicle or while
you are waiting at a traffic light,
check whether there are children or
obstacles around the vehicle.
ś Check if there is something behind
the vehicle when driving in reverse.
Pedestrians may not hear the sound
of the vehicle.
Distance to Empty
OJWEVQ011036E
The distance to empty range displayed
will vary depending upon which
drive mode is selected in Drive Mode
Integrated Control System.
For more information, refer to “Drive
Mode Integrated Control System” in
chapter 6.
When destination is not set
ś On average, a vehicle can drive about
198 miles (320 km).
ś Under certain circumstances where
the air conditioner/heater is ON,
the distance to empty is impacted,
resulting in a possible distance
range from 186 miles (300 km).
When using the heater during cold
weather or driving at high speed, the
high voltage battery consumes a lot
more electricity. This may reduce the
distance to empty significantly.
ś After ‘0 mile’ has been displayed,
the vehicle can drive an additional
2~5 miles (3~8 km) depending on
driving speed, heater/air conditioner,
weather, driving style, and other
factors.
