ECO Assist Scoring
Monitors the fuel efficiency of your driving style in real time and converts results
into leaves, which are displayed in a series of five “plant” icons on the MID.
Once you start your vehicle, make sure the MID shows the Ecological Drive
Display on the display to view your Eco Assist score in real time.
As you drive, you earn leaves if you drive in a fuel\befficient manner, or lose
them if you drive inefficiently.
When you turn the ignition off, your drive cycle and lifetime score are
displayed on the MID.
Eco Score
Each time you reach
a new stage, a Stage
Up Recognition icon
briefly appears on
the MID. When you
reach the highest
ranking, a Trophy
icon briefly appears.

Note: The IMA assist may not
operate under certain conditions.
Auto Idle Stop
Shuts the engine off at a stop in order to maximize fuel efficiency. Idle stop
duration varies depending on certain conditions, such as climate control
operation, IMA battery level, and outside temperature.
How It Works
Shows the status of the Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) system.

When the tire pressure drops
significantly below
recommended levels, the low
tire pressure indicator comes
on and “CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE” appears on the
MID.
What to Do
\f.
Visually inspect the tires for
damage.
2. Use a tire air pressure gauge to
check which tire(s) have low
