■When in HV mode
The vehicle can be used in the same way as a standard hybrid
vehicle.
In HV mode, controls are primarily carried out as follows in
accordance with the driving conditions.
●The gasoline engine stops when the vehicle is stopped.
● During start off, the electric motor (traction motor) drives the
vehicle.
● During normal driving, the gasoline engine and electric motor
(traction motor) are controlled effectively, and the vehicle is
driven with optimum fuel efficienc y. Also, when necessary, the
electric motor (traction motor) operates as an electrical gener-
ator to charge the hybrid battery (traction battery).
● When the accelerator pedal is depressed heavily, drive force
from both the gasoline engine an d the electric motor (traction
motor) is used to accelerate.
■ When braking (regenerative braking)
The electric motor (traction mo tor) charges the hybrid battery
(traction battery).
The EV driving range can be extended by actively using this
regenerative braking to store el ectricity in the hybrid battery
(traction battery).
Moreover, as fuel consumption is also reduced when in HV
mode, the regenerative braking sy stem can be used effectively.

Selecting “Clear” on the “Consumption” screen will reset the fuel consump-
tion and the regenerated energy for the past 30 minutes.
Selecting “Yes” on the following screen will confirm resetting of all the data.

Multi-information display
If the “POWER” switch is turned OFF, average fuel consumption and regen-
erated energy data will be reset.
■ EV driving range display
●When in EV mode or when necessary charge is remaining for EV mode,
the estimated EV driving range can also be confirmed using the Hybrid
System Indicator. ( P. 270)
● The distance displayed is computed based on electricity consumption.
As a result, the actual distance that can be driven may differ from that
displayed.
