Distances and the route bar

The distance ahead shown on the route bar depends on the length of your route, or the distance
remaining on your route.
For remaining distances longer than 31 miles (50 km), only the next 31 miles (50 km) is shown.
The destination icon is not shown.
Tip: You can scroll the route bar to see your whole route.
For remaining distances between 6 miles (10 km) and 31 miles (50 km), the complete distance is
shown. The destination icon is shown fixed at the top of the route bar.
For remaining distances of less than 6 miles (10 km) the complete distance is shown. The
destination icon moves down toward the chevron symbol as you get closer to your destination.
The top half of the route bar shows twice the distance of the bottom half, as shown in the following
examples:
A remaining distance of 31 miles (50 km) on the route bar is split into 21 miles (34 km) at the
top and 9 miles (16 km) on the bottom.
A remaining distance of 6 miles (10 km) on the route bar is split into 4 miles (6.6 km) at the top
and 2 miles (3.3 km) on the bottom.
The route bar is constantly updated as you drive.
