SPORT+ mode optimizes dynamic response
from all powertrain an d chassis systems -
perfect for your favorite winding road.
• EV operation is elimin ated while operating
in SPORT+ .
TRACK mode gives maximum, consistent
performance from dyna mic systems during
track day lapping sessions. Hybrid battery
charge is maintained for consistent
performance.
• VSA ® OFF indicator is illuminated in TRACK
mode indicating reduced stability control.
This allows more body side slip and wheel
spin before VSA ® begins to operate.
• Integrated Dynamics switch must be turned
and held to the right for several seconds to
engage TRACK mode.

uuWhen Driving uVehicle Stability AssistTM (VSA ®), aka Electronic Stability Control (ESC), System
Driving
This button is on the driver side control panel.
This button is used to change VSA ® modes.
See below for more information.
VSA ® is turned on every time you turn the
power system on, even if you press the button
the last time you drove the vehicle.
■When the Integrated Dynamics Syst em mode is in QUIET mode, SPORT
mode, or SPORT+ mode To enter Stuck Vehicle Assist mode, press
the VSA® OFF button until a single beep is
heard and the VSA ® OFF indicator illuminates.
u This message appears on the driver

■VSA ® On and Off1 Vehicle Stability AssistTM (VSA® ), aka Electronic Stability Control
(ESC), System
In Stuck Vehicle Assist mode, your vehicle will have
normal braking and corn ering ability, but VSA®
traction and stability enhancement becomes less
effective.
In certain unusual conditions when your vehicle gets
stuck in shallow mud or fr esh snow, it may be easier
to free it with Stuck Vehicle Assist mode.
In Stuck Vehicle Assist mode, the traction control
function becomes less effective. This allows for the
wheels to spin more freely at low speed. You should
only attempt to free your vehicle with the button
pressed if you are not able to free it without.
Immediately after freeing your vehicle, be sure to
press the button again. We do not recommend
driving your vehicle with Stuck Vehicle Assist mode.
You may hear a motor sound coming from the front
of the vehicle while system checks are being
performed immediately after turning the power
system on or while driving. This is normal.VSA ® OFF Indicator
