e-hybrid display confusion

Please can anyone point me in the direction of an explaination of the %Charge-%Power-Rev counter display on my 2021 Golf e-hybrid. I am confused about the green, white and blue lines before the obvious rev counter part of the circle. The manual is particularly useless in this respect. Thanks in advance.

The white section shows when regeneration is taking place while decelerating or when the engine is charging the battery. The line above that extends up to the 12 o'clock position shows how much electric power is being used. I think the colour varies according to the colour scheme you've chosen.

Thank you Andy. The line above (as you refer to it) never reaches 12 o'clock when in electric mode. Howerver in Hybrid mode there is no gap and it is always positioned at 12 o'clock. Any explanation for this?

In cold weather the car doesn't give you full battery power, the gap shows you how much power is not available. Gap also gets bigger once charge drops below 20% or so
