First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of dynamically displaying a plurality of electric drive range estimations for a vehicle having an electric motor, and an energy storage system configured to provide electric power to the electric motor, said method comprising the steps of:
- estimating and displaying an instantaneous drivable electric drive range of the vehicle based on driving behavior;
estimating and displaying a maximum drivable electric drive range of the vehicle; and
estimating and displaying a minimum drivable electric drive range of the vehicle.
