Abstract
Disclosed is a technique for calculating Distance to Empty (DTE) in an electric vehicle. In the disclosed technique, a learning DTE is calculated by blending an average fuel efficiency stored during a past charge cycle and an average fuel efficiency within a current single charge cycle. Also, a section DTE is calculated using an average fuel efficiency over the certain section within a current single charge cycle. Then, the learning DTE and the section DTE are simultaneously displayed on a cluster.
