Quick Reference Guide
SPORT HYBRID i-MMD (intelligent Multi Mode Drive)
Your SPORT HYBRID i-MMD vehicle uses both an electric motor and a gasoline engine as propulsion sources, with the electric motor
receiving electricity from an internal High Voltage battery or internal generator. The High Voltage battery can be charged from the
generator driven by the engine or regenerative braking.
When driving, your vehicle is propelled exclusively by the electric motor, exclusively by the gasoline engine, or by a combinat ion of two. The
system selects which pr opulsion source is most appropriate and automatically sw itches to it. Under certain circumstances, pressing the EV
button can manually enable EV (driven only on electricity) mode.● Energy efficiency
As with a gasoline-powered vehicle, hybrid vehicle fuel efficiency and driving range is most impacted by your driving style. Ag gressive
acceleration and high-speed driving can easily trigger the system to switch the propulsion source to the gasoline-powered engin e.
In addition, heavy climate control system use negatively affects vehicle range and efficiency. Either of these use patterns wil l more quickly
reduce the High Voltage battery's state of charge.● Battery types
There are two types of batteries used in this vehicle; a standard 12-volt batt ery that powers the airbags, the interior and ext erior lights, and
other standard 12-volt systems; and a high voltage battery that is used to power the propulsion motor and recharge the 12-volt battery.
