2024 TOYOTA PROACE VERSO EV fuel consumption

8
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise the vehicle's energy consumption (fuel and/or electricity) and CO2 emissions.
Optimise your use of the gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up promptly. While accelerating, change
up early.With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic mode. Do not depress the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.The gear shift indicator prompts you to engage the most suitable gear. Whenever this indication is displayed on the instrument panel, follow it straight away.With an automatic gearbox, this indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal and press the accelerator gradually. These practices help to save on energy consumption, reduce CO2 emissions and decrease general traffic noise.When the traffic is flowing smoothly, select the cruise control.
Control the use of electrical equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.At speeds above 31 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents open.Consider using equipment that can help keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (e.g. sunroof blind, window blinds).
Unless automatically regulated, switch off the air conditioning as soon as the desired temperature has been reached.Switch off the demisting and defrosting functions, if they are not managed automatically.Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.Adapt the use of headlamps and/or foglamps to the level of visibility, in accordance with current legislation in the country in which you are driving.Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter (other than in severe wintry conditions: temperature below -23°C). The vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.As a passenger, avoid connecting your multimedia devices (e.g. film, music, video game) to help reduce the consumption of energy.Disconnect all portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle. Place the heaviest items in the boot as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and minimise wind resistance (e.g. roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer). Preferably, use a roof box.Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit summer tyres.
Comply with the servicing instructions
Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres
cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on the driver's side.Carry out this check in particular:– before a long journey.– at each change of season.– after a long period out of use.Do not forget the spare wheel and, where applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.Have your vehicle serviced regularly (e.g. engine oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter, etc.). Observe the schedule of operations in the manufacturer's service schedule.With a Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty, your vehicle will emit pollution. Check with any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible to restore your vehicle's nitrogen oxide emissions to legal levels.When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after the third cut-out of the nozzle, to avoid overflow.You will only see the fuel consumption of your new vehicle settle down to a consistent average after the first 1,900 miles (3,000 kilometres).

Range
(km or miles)Distance that can still be travelled with the fuel remaining in the tank (based on the average fuel consumption over the last few miles (kilometres) travelled).
NOTIC E
This value may vary following a change in the driving style or terrain, resulting in a significant change in the spot fuel consumption.
When the range falls below 30 km (19 miles), dashes are displayed.After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is displayed if it exceeds 100 km (62 miles).
WARNI NG
If dashes instead of figures continue to be displayed when driving, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

Gear efficiency indicator
(Depending on engine.)This system helps reduce fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the vehicle's equipment, the system may advise to skip one or more gears.Gear shift recommendations should not be considered compulsory. In fact, the road layout, the traffic density and safety remain the deciding factors when choosing the best gear. The driver therefore remains responsible for deciding whether or not to follow the indications issued by the system.This function cannot be deactivated.On certain Diesel versions with manual gearbox, the system may suggest changing into neutral (N is displayed in the instrument panel) so that the engine can go into standby (STOP mode with Stop & Start), in certain driving conditions.
