mileage isn't recorded in the trip?

Unread post by ChrisKe »

I thought I would set my trip to see how many actual miles I am getting on a full charge on my C5 Aircross Hybrid. I was surprised to find mileage isn't recorded in the trip? Am I missing something?

If there's more than one, which trip?

You may have set the trip computer to instantaneous, which won't record trips only the current real time info. You should have one or two trip counters - make sure you use one of these for trip recording - all detailed in your manual.

You are right, it doesn't show you the mileage just on Electric, it shows mileage for that actual trip.
One way to find out how far it will go is to, fully charge the traction battery, reset you trip, make sure the car is in electric mode only and drive until the engine starts.
Be aware, you will get better results at lower speeds than you will at higher speeds.
