Quick Reference Guide
●Regenerative Energy and Regenerative BrakingWhen decelerating without the accelerator being depressed or the brake pedal being applied, or
while driving downhill, the electric motor acts as a generator that recovers a portion of the
electrical energy that was used to accelerate the vehicle. This regenerative braking slows the
vehicle in a manner similar to engine braking in a gasoline-powered vehicle. You can control the
rate of deceleration by using the deceleration paddle selector.
●Auto Engine Stop/Start
Your vehicle’s gasoline engine automatically stops running during vehicle operation or restarts while the vehicle is stationary when it is
appropriate.
In the following cases, however, auto engine stop may not activate.
•The vehicle momentarily needs additional power for aggressive acceleration, or driving uphill or at high speed.
•The climate control system is in heavy use.
•The High Voltage battery temperature is high or low.•The High Voltage battery is too low on charge.
Predictive Eco Assist*
Predictive Eco Assist helps you drive more economically to your destination during navigation route guidance.
It predicts how much the high voltage battery can be charged by regenerative braking when driving downhill on the way to the
destination, and operates in EV mode as much as possible.
If there are any stops on the way to the destination, it works more effectively if they are set as waypoints.
If you leave the suggested navigation route, Predictive Eco Assi st may not function in a way that is suitable for your route.
You can turn Predictive Eco Assist on and off in Ve hicle Settings using the audio/information screen.
