I have a question about the display that reads "miles to empty". Does this reflect the actually gas usage miles to empty or the total miles inclusive of EV and ICE? I've noticed that my gauge read 30 miles to empty and I went into EV and then the gauge read 29 and 28 miles to empty when I was using EV. Is this normal? Is there more gas in the tank then is indicated? :confused: Anyone know?

Generally, 0 MTE is when there is ~1.3 gallons left and represents total miles. The value is based on historical MPG and an averaged fuel level. That is why it can drop even during EV.
