Distance To Empty (DTE) or Range is the estimated distance an EV can be driven with the remaining electric energy until the battery reaches zero. DTE can vary depending on the selected drive mode, current driving conditions, traffic, driving patterns, air conditioner or heater use, and how much cargo you are carrying.

Quick Tips:

  • When decelerating or driving downhill, regenerative braking charges the high voltage battery which minimizes energy loss and increases the Distance to Empty or Range
  • When you set a destination via the on-board navigation system, DTE is calculated based on the route selected. By setting a final destination, DTE accuracy may improve. By knowing the final location, the vehicle can better predict the amount of battery energy it will need to reach that destination
  • When operating the climate control, use the DRIVER ONLY function to conserve energy
  • In cold weather, use scheduled heating to reduce the amount of energy consumption
  • In the EV Settings, select Battery Conditioning Mode to increase the battery temperature in cold weather

Reminders:

  • If DTE displays “Zero Miles,” you need to charge the vehicle immediately
  • Most electric vehicles can drive an additional two to five miles depending on driving conditions
  • 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
  • Operating the climate control system may reduce the Distance to Empty
