    Hi all - just got a 2017 Prime Premium. Wondering what tips/tricks others might have that may not be easy to figure out on my own? Specifically interested in how to get the most range out of the EV battery and the most MPG when using gas. And would be great to find a way to turn off that beeping when in reverse. Appreciate your responses!

    congrats and welcome!

    the dealer can change some beeping or an app like carista. some maybe settable in your menu.

    there is a way to reset the big screen when it freezes, hold the power button i think.

    ev is mostly acceleration and speed, but in mixed driving (ev/hv) use hv for hill climbing and high speed.

    all the best!(y)
