plementary role. The system is not
designed to and does not replace
the care of drivers. Drivers should
always pay attention to their sur

roundings while driving.
Distance to Empty
You can check the distance the vehi
-
cle can be driven with the current
battery amount.
When destination is not set
Distance to empty may depend on
many factors such as the charge
amount of the high voltage battery,
weather, temperature, durability of
the battery, geographical features,
and driving style.
Natural degradation may occur with
the high voltage batte
ry
depending
on the number of years the vehicle
is used. This may reduce the dis
-
tance to empty.
On average, a vehicle can drive
approx
imately 239 miles or 385 km.
Under certain circumstances where
the air conditioner / heater is ON,
the distance to empty is impacted,
resulting in a possible distance
range from 174~310 miles (280~500
km).
When using the heater during cold
we
ath
er or driving at high speed,
the high voltage battery consumes
a lot more electricity. This may
reduce the distance to empty sig
-
nificantly.
The vehicle can stop shortly after
the "---" has b
een displayed. When
it is displayed, drive to a safe place
to stop the vehicle. (The available
range varies depending on driving
speed, heater / air conditioner,
weather, driving style, and other
factors.)
Distance to empty that is displayed
on the
instr
ument cluster after
completing a recharge may vary
significantly depending on previous
operating patterns. When previous
driving patterns include high speed
driving, resulting in the high voltage
battery using more electricity than
usual, the estimated distance to
empty is reduced. When the high
voltage battery uses little electricity
in ECO mode, the estimated dis
-
tance to empty increases.
