Distance Range

The driving range (km or miles) provides an estimated distance that the vehicle can be driven before recharging is necessary. The driving range is constantly being calculated, based on the amount of available Li-ion battery charge and the actual power consumption average.

VCM calculates average electricity consumption at a specified travel distance, according to total power consumption of the vehicle. Based on the average electricity consumption and the Li-ion battery available charge signal received from the Li-ion battery, VCM calculates driving range and transmits a driving range signal to the combination meter.
