4.2 Estimating Your Driving Range
The Power Gauge displays the energy
available in the Power Pack and also
gives an indication of your driving
range. Plan your trips to get the most of
your car.
As you cover distance, the needle on this
gauge will descend from the “Full” [F]
position on the green band to “Empty”
[E] on the red band.
While continuing driving, the energy
level further reduces. Once you reach
25% State Of Charge (SOC) your car
will move into the Economy mode
activated by EMS by default(On board
computer). The “Low Battery Light”
will be ON continuously.
Driving your G-Wiz
This is due to pre-programmed software
in your car’s Energy Management
System [EMS] and Motor Controller.
These warning signals ensure, as far as
possible, that you are never stranded on
the road due to insufficient energy in the
Power Pack.
100% SOC~48 miles (77 km)
80% SOC~36 miles (58 km)
60% SOC~24 miles (38 km)
40% SOC~12 miles (19 km)
35% SOC~9 miles (14 km)
25% SOC~3 miles (5 km)

4.1 Quick Start
Driving your G-Wiz
By following the above steps, you will
notice that driving your car is a simple
and delightful experience.
Read on to derive the maximum out of
your car.
While driving, if you remove your
foot from the accelerator pedal
without pressing the brake pedal,
you will sense automatic braking
taking place.
This is normal and is attributed to
the car’s regenerative braking
system. Through this form of braking
the Power Pack will get re-charged
partially.
NOTE
Step 6: When you require a higher
degree of acceleration, rotate
the Control Knob to ‘Boost’
[B] mode. In this mode, you
attain a much higher top speed.
This is electronically limited to
50 mph It is possible for you
to switch from Forward [F]
mode to Boost [B] mode
and vice-versa while the car is in
motion. However, for optimal
driving range, you are advised
to use Forward [F] mode as
far as possible.
Step 7: To reverse, make sure that
your car is stationary. Then
turn the Control knob to
Reverse [R] mode. Press
accelerator gently and move
backward. In this mode too,
speed is electronically limited to
approx 12 mph for safety.
