I dont think so , because when I change trips it always stay at 94%

I believe it is resetting automatically to 100% whenever you plug your PHEV and charge fully the battery. I noticed that mine was showing 100% most every morning, except when I would preheat the car long enough so that the charge would restart.

I also found this in an older thread oh this forum:
« EV ratio takes into account the following:

It is a ratio of the following: The amount of time the vehicle has spent moving without the ICE on, divided by the amount of time the ICE has been on (regardless of whether moving or stopped).

Yes, that's right, if I hit Charge while at a stop, I can watch the meter steadily decrease. But switching off Charge mode and standing still does not cause it to increase. I have to actually move the car in order for it to start counting time again. »

I believe you are right about that.
I was searching in owner manual but could not find anything about that.
I did not even pay attention on that gauge until yesterday when Hasenphever noted battery percentage and thanks him for that.
I will put my eye on that gauge in the future.

That was my idea to open this discussion about real fuel consumption , so we can hear each others real style driving and based on that we can improve our fuel consumption to save some money and also to learn something new.

I can confirm now EV DRIVING TIME RATIO is not related to driving since recharged battery.
When I unplugged charger from the car, battery was fully charged and EV ratio stayed the same as yesterday when finished at 94% did not reset to 100% on fully charged battery and all EV driven kilometers after charging.
Today driven 30 km EV only ICE did not start any time and EV ratio improved from 94% to 96%.
I think again EV DRIVING TIME RATIO gauge ( display ) is probable related to AUTO REFUEL gauge ( display ).
This is make more sense to me , because since refuel on 327 km driven I have 0.8L/100 km average .

I had the same experience this morning when starting from a full charge, no change in EV ratio. Good guess on fuel refill resetting this stat, I will keep my eye on it on the next refill. Otherwise it may report the EV ratio since the last reset and if none of us has pressed the Ok button to reset it then it could very well be the EV ratio since the factory.

First fill-up after a couple weeks with the Outlander: 525 miles, 12.5 gallons, so about 42mpg overall (which google tells me is 5.6l/100km). Pretty good for a 7-seater with awd on snow tires!

About half of those miles were at 75+mph, including about 6 trips up and down (also at 75mph) the 2500ft mountain I live on. So really, pretty dang good all things considered.

So, I haven't put any gas in since my return from the 1,500 km road trip that showed 38% EV time ratio. The next day after a full charge on a short city trip around noon, EV ratio was still about 38%. The day after that (yesterday) I did 2 trips in the city, about 60km in total, mostly on EV. The morning after that (today) I did a short, maybe 10-15km round trip, mostly in EV, and sometime during that trip it showed 78% EV drive ratio. Then this afternoon maybe a 20-25km round trip mostly in EV and the EV ratio was at 68%.

I think the EV priority ratio has a time reset....maybe it shows the ratio in the last 24 hours or something like that?

Possible, mine reset this morning after all EV driving showed 100%
