    There's an indicator on the dash which shows how many miles you can drive in electric-only mode. But is there a way to determine the charge remaining in kWh?

    unfortunately, no. but once you get a feel for your car, you will begin to intuitively understand the relationship between ev miles remaining and charge level. the ev/hv % screen does show kwh used, but no fractions.
