Anyone else have an issue with the EV indicator not coming on sometimes. I know I am in the EV mode as I can step on the gas a bit harder and feel/hear the motor starting. Does not happen all the time but just every once in a while.

I have felt the engine shutoff, then drive on battery and see the EV indicator off, then several seconds later it turns on. Seems like there was a huge delay before it figured it was in EV mode. It does not happen all the time, but every now and then.

Sorry, no, I haven't noticed any issues with the EV indicator. To be honest, I don't really look for it since I often switch back and forth to sport mode. But it's always gratifying to see that indicator when it does appear.

Same here. It happens a few times a month but it is rare and you have to be paying attention.
Yep mine only does it every once in a while. The graphic on the NAV screen will show power just coming from the battery to the wheels but the EV light may still not be on.
