Refer to the "eBraking mode" chapter
in the "Starting and driving" section.
Special case: after the high-voltage
battery has been fully recharged
and during the first kilometres of
use of the car, the exhaust brake is
in a temporary condition of reduced
effectiveness. Adapt your driving
accordingly.
5) 6) 7)
While driving, you can activate the
selector (A) fig. 7 located on the central
tunnel. This device allows you to set
three different driving modes according
to the driver's needs:
SCORPION TRACK
SCORPION STREET
TURISMO
Via the on board electronics, the
device acts on the dynamic control
system of the car (motor, ESC system),
interfacing the instrument panel as well.
The selector is of "hold to operate"
type, returning to the central position
when released. Engagement of the
required driving mode is indicated on
the instrument panel display with a
dedicated message. The system does
not allow you to change the driving
mode when you drastically reduce the
performance of the electric motor (see
paragraph on performance limitations).
When the motor is started, the system
usually maintains the driving mode that
was active before the car was stopped.
The standard operating mode is
"SCORPION TRACK". Pull and
release the selector once to activate
"SCORPION STREET" mode. Pulling
and releasing the selector switch a
second time activates the "TURISMO"
mode. To return to "SCORPION
STREET" mode, push the switch
towards the dashboard and release it
once, to return to "SCORPION TRACK"
mode, push and release it a second
time.
Driving mode selection is not available
in "Performance limitation - Turtle
mode".

"SCORPION TRACK"
mode
In the "SCORPION TRACK" operating
mode, the car has no performance
limitations and can be driven fast using
all the power and torque of the traction
system. In this mode, the energy
consumption of the car depends on the
driving style.
In "SCORPION TRACK" mode, when
the accelerator pedal is released, the
car slows down with an engine braking
effect similar to that of a conventional
vehicle. During this phase, the high-
voltage battery is partially recharged
(regeneration).
In "SCORPION TRACK" mode, when
the one-speed transmission is on D,
to keep the car stationary press the
brake pedal ("One Pedal Driving" not
available).
The "creeping" function is also
available. The car will start to move
forward (with transmission in "D") or
backward (with transmission in "R")
when the brake pedal is released. The
accelerator should not be pressed in
this case.
