    Ok, so I'm a new Prius owner - less than 48 hours! And I'm trying to figure out the consumptions screens.

    Am I right: when I'm charging the battery, the arrows go in that direction and they're green.

    And when I'm using the engine, the colour of the arrows are pink.

    And when I'm using the battery, the colour of the arrows are yellow?

    You are for the most part correct, but there are other combinations that can be seen as well. Such as:

    When the ICE is also powering the electric motor and wheels. You'll see pink from ICE to wheels and (I think yellow) from ICE to elec motor to wheels.

    The a look at the following Link!
