The little gauge above the 'tree formation' seems like it shows when regeneration is maxed and pads begin to waste energy. Page 2-11 in the LEAF Owner's manual describes this gauge as the instant ECO driving level. When the regen energy panel shows max at 30KW applying additional braking force drops the instant eco meter.
