No, I did not press the accelerator. I was just coasting downhill. If I press the accelerator in N, nothing would happen. Other info: I had 80% charge as I was leaving home. I live on a mountain and my drive out of home is always downhill. It was 29 degrees on dashboard.smkettner wrote:Did you press the accelerator while in neutral?EVerlasting wrote:I actually watched the ECO Indicator go to full as soon as I began coasting down a hill in "N" yesterday, so your example is wrong.TomT wrote:I'll give you but one of many examples. Coast down a hill in N. Press and release the accelerator. Watch the efficiency gauge go from 0 to 100%. There are many more...

Next time you are coasting in N, press the accelerator and watch the "trees". Something will happen.EVerlasting wrote:No, I did not press the accelerator. I was just coasting downhill. If I press the accelerator in N, nothing would happen.

Re: Lose the "Building Trees" on the head's up display
and maybe stop making absolute statments like "you are wrong" before you have all the info or have read all the facts.... never a good idea.... there are few things that are 100% absolute...WetEV wrote:Next time you are coasting in N, press the accelerator and watch the "trees".

I said "Your example is wrong". I did not say "you are wrong".

Re: Lose the "Building Trees" on the head's up display
I will try that out but it just strange for anyone to accelerate in N. There is no ICE engine roar that's for sure.WetEV wrote:Next time you are coasting in N, press the accelerator and watch the "trees".

Re: Lose the "Building Trees" on the head's up display
Yes, the ECO Indicator turns down (counter clockwise) when I press the accelerator in N, but like I said before, there is no need to press the accelerator in N because nothing happens. Its Neutral and the inverted is disconnected from motor. This is either a coding error by Nissan, or Nissan tries predict usage if D or ECO are engaged with the accelerator pressed. In any case, the ECO Tree and ECO Indicator IMO are helpful in displaying drive efficiency without moving eyes off the road to watch the center console's energy usage screen.EVerlasting wrote:I will try that out but it just strange for anyone to accelerate in N.

I'm 6'5 and I can't see the current shifter display either.
