• Fuel History: This view from left to right starts with the instantaneous

fuel economy gauge and adds historical fuel economy data. The data
is represented as an average for time intervals of either 1, 2 or
6 minutes, with the left most interval being the most recent. Total
time for the 5 intervals is shown at the bottom of the view. Interval
time can be selected in the options sub menu. For Energi vehicles a
blue outline indicates Plug-in Power was used at least half of that
interval. Intervals shown in grey color are from the previous drive.

• Coach: This view provides a comparison of your recent Acceleration,

Braking and Cruising behavior to what is recommended for most
efficient use of energy under present conditions. The horizontal bars
fill from left to right with best behavior (and Blue color) shown as at
least half full. When the bars are less than half full, the color is Amber,
suggesting that a change in behavior is needed to achieve better
energy efficiency.

Note that fuel economy is not always a measure of appropriate driving
behavior. For example, when driving uphill and maintaining an
appropriate speed, your instant fuel economy may not be good (losing
leaves) but the Coach may show a blue bar for Acceleration or Cruising.
