Presentation of the HYbrid4 system
thank you for choosing this HYbrid4 vehicle,
which has characteristics that are different from
conventional vehicles.
Study this handbook to learn about the specific
hybrid functions and for more information, refer
to the "Hybrid System" section.
th
e HYbrid4 technology allows two sources of
energy to be associated in an effective manner:
the Diesel HDi engine, which drives the front
wheels and the electric motor, which drives the
rear wheels.
th

ese two motors can operate alternately or
simultaneously, according to the hybrid mode
selected and the driving conditions.
th

e electric motor alone provides power for
the vehicle in "Z
eV

" (Zero e
m
issions Vehicle)
mode, and in "Auto" mode for running at slow
speed and low load. It also assists the Diesel
engine when moving off, accelerating and
changing gear.
th

e battery that powers the electric motor is
recharged during phases of deceleration and
stores the energy for subsequent use. 1.

For economical driving, caring for the environment
the fuel consumption of a vehicle varies greatly :
- a ccording to the driver's style of driving (moderate, aggressive, fast, ...),
-
a

ccording to the type of journeys made (urban, main road, motor way, flowing, heavy traffic, …) and the speed.
Main recommendations for driving economically
Hybrid mode selector
to optimise fuel consumption, use the Auto mode of the selector whenever possible (the mode is activated
automatically when starting) including for urban journeys.
th

is mode optimises the use of the energy sources (internal combustion engine and/or electric) contrary to other
modes, which are for use in particular cases.
Gear lever
use the automatic mode A as much as possible as this optimises gear changes to suit the requirements.
Drive smoothly
Stay in the "eco" zone displayed in the energy consumption / generation indicator: accelerate gently, drive at
steady speeds using the speed limiter or cruise control as soon as possible.
Use the "charge" zone: anticipate the need to slow down by taking your foot off the accelerator rather than
braking.
t
h
e movement of the energy consumption / generation indicator needle (into the "charge" zone), shows
the level of energy recovery.
Consumption history
See the impact of your style of driving and the type of journey by reviewing the history of your energy
consumption. Refer to the "Multifunction screens" section.
Causes of high consumption and checks
As with any vehicle, limit overloading, wind resistance (windows open above 30 mph (50 km/h), roof bars, loaded
or not, …), the use of power consumers (air conditioning, heated seats, heated rear screen, …).
Observe the recommendations on checks (regular check of tyre pressures, correct tyre pressures, …) and routine
servicing.
