C-Max Hybrid Next-Generation SmartGauge with EcoGuide

The dual-LCD next-generation SmartGauge with EcoGuide provides real-time information to help you get the most efficiency from your C-MAX Hybrid or C-MAX Energi Plug-In Hybrid. The MyView screen lets you customize displays to your liking. Configurable screens such as Brake Coach help you maximize your vehicle’s efficiency. Left-side display screens include Engage and Empower modes. In Engage, you’ll see separate gauges for engine power and lithium-ion battery power, and “EV” displayed when the vehicle is operating on lithium-ion battery power only. In Empower you’ll also see how close you are to the gasoline engine on/off threshold and the amount of power being requested based on how far you’re depressing the accelerator pedal. Five-way steering wheel-mounted controls make it all easy. As your driving efficiency increases, the right-side cluster display grows lush green leaves and vines.
