Question Electricity Generated

For those of you who have the NAV system, when you monitor the mileage on the NAV system, cars show up whenever a certain amount of electricity is generated.

Based on what I've seen, you get either a full car or a half-car. My assumption is that a half-car represents 25 Kw and a full car 50 Kw. Ocassionally, I have even seen two cars on the same line.

Is my understanding correct?

I can see "50Wh Regenerated" for a full car.

Ken,

I'm referring to the cars or half-cars that you have on your screen superimposed on the MPG lines. I noted 3 on your screen at 1 min, 4 minutes and 7 minutes.

So, a full car icon means 50Wh regenerated and a half car icon means 25Wh regenerated shown as the reference at the top left corner without reading your owner's manual.
They are not 50kW nor 25 kW.
