    The ICE arrows are almost always green but sometimes they are red. What is the difference in the color of the arrows?

    Green arrows indicate electric current flow to and from HV battery and MG's.

    Red arrows indicate mechanical power flow from ICE to wheels and ICE to MG1 to charge HV battery.
