SHIFT CONTROL SYSTEM
This vehicle is equipped with an electric shif t
control system, providing smooth and easy shif t
lever operation.
There are five shif t positions for operating the vehicle: P (PARK), R (REVERSE),
N (NEUTRAL), D (DRIVE) and B-Mode.



•

P (P
ARK) – Activated by pushing
the P (PARK) switch on the shif t lever when
the vehicle has come to a complete stop.



•

D (DRIVE)
– For normal driving, it is activated by moving the shif t lever lef t and
down. The shif t lever will then return to the center position.



•

B-Mode
– Engages the regenerative braking system more aggressively when
decelerating, helping to put energy back into the battery pack. To enter
B-Mode, the vehicle must be in D (DRIVE) and then move the shif t lever to the
D (DRIVE) position again. The shif t lever will then return to the center position.
ECO – Consumes less power and helps extend vehicle range.



• While in either
D (DRIVE) or B-Mode, ECO can be activated by pressing the ECO
button on the right side of the steering wheel.
