Question
A

How can I optimise m
y
fuel consumption? Give preference to Auto mode as it selects in the best wa
y
the "drivin
g
ener
gy
source" to
u
se in order to reduce fuel consumption.
You should also adapt
y
our drivin
g
st
y
le to the special features of h
y
brid vehicles to
g
et the
best out of it, for example b
y
takin
g
y
our foot off the accelerator pedal rather than brakin
g
a

anticipatin

(

)
.

do I not mana

mode?
It is not ZEV mode but Auto mode that is the most appropriate for reducin
g
fuel
c
onsumption, as it selects the best "drivin
g
ener
gy
source".
ZEV mode
(
100% electric operation
)
can reduce fuel consumption in some cases. However,
r
echar
g
in
g
the traction batter
y
has an ener
gy
cost.
This is wh
y
we recommend usin
g
Auto mode more o
f
ten.
Wh

The current

ed ma
y
appear hi

ver

g
enerall
y
has ver

little impact and the true avera

In town,
