The efficient range of the power gauge is col-  
ored blue. Additionally, the bonus range will be  
displayed.  
Efficiency trainer  
The efficient range is adjusted depending on  
the driving situation.  
Principle  
If the power gauge moves within the blue  
range, the current driving style is efficient. The  
display will change to gray if the driving style is  
inefficient.  
The system provides assistance for an antici-  
patory and comfort-oriented driving style. For  
this purpose, map information and sensor data  
is used to analyze the current driving situation  
such as upcoming speed limits and vehicles  
driving ahead. Based on this information, the  
driver receives notices for an efficient driving  
style early on. The efficiency of the driving style  
is evaluated in the control display and shown  
in three categories.  
Bonus range  
A modified driving style helps  
you extend your driving range.  
The range extension is dis-  
played as the bonus range in  
the instrument cluster.  
General information  
The system has different displays to support  
the driver with an efficient driving style.  
If the bonus range is shown in gray or is hid-  
den, the current driving style is inefficient.  
The display turns blue as soon as all condi-  
tions for energy-saving driving are met.

DRIVING TIPS  
The intervals for resetting the bonus range de-  
pend on the settings of the trip data.  
Display on the control display  
The display of the efficiency analysis shows  
the efficiency of the driving style.  
Display in case of inefficient driving  
style  
The more efficient the driving style, the larger  
the bars of the evaluation categories.  
In contrast, a reduced area will be displayed  
with an inefficient driving style.  
When driving above the efficient range,  
an arrow will be displayed.  
For instance, this is displayed for the  
following situations:  
Max Range  
Excessive acceleration.  
Excessive speed.  
Principle  
Depending on the national-market version, the  
Max Range mode enables the range to be in-  
creased through the following measures:  
In addition, a notice to coast in advance is dis-  
played.  
System limits  
For example, the function is not available in  
the following situations:  
The maximum speed is limited to  
60 mph/90 km/h.  
The drive power will be reduced.  
While Active Cruise Control is active.  
With trailer towing.  
The comfort functions are restricted, e.g.,  
air conditioning or seat heating are deacti-  
vated.  
With Max Range mode, the maximum range  
can be increased by up to 20%.
