carltj Report post Posted May 22, 2010 I've had my MMH for a month now and been using Empower on the dash to some advantage, I believe. With less than a hundred miles to "empty" indicator light , I should just clear 700 miles on my first tank.. But, the power gauge shows subtleties of shading and movement that I cannot explain (for example, the green horizontal bar moves slowly upward, just after I transition from power to glide before it starts to come down, as the battery is drained of charge ). Is there a Ford source that goes into detail beyond what the Manual gives us for those wanting a more complete understanding of this gauge and its indications?

lolder Report post Posted May 23, 2010 I don't know of any technical descriptions. The green EV envelope is controlled by the computer and more power is available with higher HVB charge levels. It's all designed to create long HVB life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
