real-time energy usage. The bar is colored gray (or white if the display is in Dark mode) and
moves to the right to represent energy being used during acceleration. The bar is green and
moves to the left to represent energy being gained through regenerative braking.

Autosteer on page 112 ). Depending on the current driving scenario, you may see
neighboring lanes.
