Fig. 12 In the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit: Power display (general example).
During travel, the power display shows
the current performance of the electric
drivetrain and the current electric drive
power or energy recuperation power.
Display concept
Using a bar split down the middle, the power display always shows the availability of energy recuperation fig. 12
(green) to the left and forward motion fig. 12
(blue) to the right. If the respective bar reaches to the end marking, there is unlimited availability. If there is any restriction, the bar is shown as correspondingly
shortened.
The current drive power is displayed dynamically using a lighter bar, either as recuperation power (light green) to the left or as propulsive power (light blue) to the
right.
If current drive power and currently available performance are equal in size (bars equal in length), the power limit of the electric drivetrain has been reached.
The power limit cannot be reached at all vehicle speeds.
Influencing factors
In additional to vehicle speed, the following influencing factors exist:
The availability of forward motion and energy recuperation depends on the battery charge level of the high-voltage battery. The energy recuperation can be
limited if the battery charge level is high, as can the forward motion if the battery charge level is low.
The high-voltage battery being at a very low or very high temperature can lead to a decrease in the available drive power. This affects forward motion and
energy recuperation.
WARNING
If the drive power of the electric drivetrain is reduced, the handling characteristics, e.g. the acceleration behavior, of the vehicle may be altered. This can cause
accidents and serious injuries.
Always adjust your speed and driving style to the current visibility, weather, road, and traffic conditions, and to the battery charge level of the high-voltage
battery.
Always ensure your high-voltage battery has a sufficient battery charge level.
