WARNING
Never adjust the instrument cluster while driving. Doing so could lead to driver distraction which may cause an accident and lead to vehicle damage, serious injury, or death.

Gauges and Meters

Speedometer

Hyundai Elantra Hybrid 2023 Instrument Cluster User Guide 3

The speedometer indicates the speed of the vehicle and is calibrated in miles per hour (MPH) and/or kilometers per hour (km/h).

Power gauge 

Hyundai Elantra Hybrid 2023 Instrument Cluster User Guide 4

The power gauge indicates whether the current driving condition is fuel efficient or not.

  • CHARGE: This shows that the energy made by the vehicle is being converted to electrical energy. (Regenerated energy)
  • ECO: Shows that the vehicle is being driven in an Eco-friendly manner.
  •  POWER: Shows that the vehicle is exceeding the Eco-friendly range.

Information
In accordance with the power gauge area, the“EV” indicator comes on or off.

  • “EV” indicator ON: The vehicle is driven using the electric motor or the gasoline engine is stopped.
  • “EV” indicator OFF: The vehicle is driven using the gasoline engine.

Hybrid battery SOC (State of Charge) gauge

Hyundai Elantra Hybrid 2023 Instrument Cluster User Guide 5

This gauge indicates the remaining hybrid battery power. If the SOC is near the “0 or L (Low)” level, the vehicle automatically operates the engine to charge the battery. However, if the Service Indicator ( ) and Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) ( ) turn on when the SOC gauge is near the “0 or L (Low)” level, we recommend the vehicle be checked by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

NOTICE
Never try to start the vehicle if the fuel tank is empty. In this condition, the engine cannot charge the high-voltage battery of the hybrid system. If you try to start the vehicle when the fuel is empty, the high-voltage battery will become discharged and be damaged.

Fuel gauge

Hyundai Elantra Hybrid 2023 Instrument Cluster User Guide 6

This gauge indicates the approximate amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank.

Information

  • The fuel tank capacity is given in chapter 2.
  • The fuel gauge is supplemented by a low fuel warning light, which will illuminate when the fuel tank is nearly empty.
  •  On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge pointer may fluctuate or the low fuel warning light may come on earlier than usual due to the movement of fuel in the tank.

WARNING
Running out of fuel can expose vehicle occupants to danger.
You must stop and obtain additional fuel as soon as possible after the warning light comes on or when the gauge indicator comes close to the “E (Empty)” level.

NOTICE
Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire and damage the catalytic converter.

Range

Hyundai Elantra Hybrid 2023 Instrument Cluster User Guide 7

  •  The range is the estimated distance the vehicle can be driven with the remaining fuel.
  •  If the estimated distance is below 1 mi. (1 km), the trip computer will display “—-” as a range.

Information

  • If the vehicle is not on level ground or the battery power has been interrupted, the range function may not operate correctly.
  •  The range may differ from the actual driving distance as it is only an estimate of the available driving range for the vehicle and driving conditions.
  •  The trip computer may not register additional fuel if less than 1.6 gallons (6 liters) of fuel are added to the vehicle.
  • The range may vary significantly based on driving conditions, driving habits, and the condition of the vehicle.
