Trip was 2200 miles. Battery was fully charged with 26 mile pure EV range.
The EV charge was used up after 26 miles as expected. This left the HEV battery which shows up as 1/4 of the battery capacity display. On long climbs the HEV battery would deplete but on the down slope it would regenerate to 1/4. Never ever did the PURE EV battery get any regenerated energy or generated energy from the ICE.
The battery level indicator never got above 1/4.
You could conclude that the EV part of the battery is distinct from the HEV part in that the EV battery will only charge from a power cord via the Niro converter and never from any other source.
Maybe it is just one integrated battery and some software prevents the full battery capacity being available to absorb regenerated power.
