Engine-off coasting/
coasting
Principle
The drivetrain allows efficient coasting in the
D selector lever position with minimal deceler-
ation. This drive state is called coasting. This
reduces fuel consumption.
Vehicles with mild hybrid technology do not
consume fuel while coasting.
General
An anticipatory driving style helps to use the
function frequently and supports the consump-
tion-reducing effect of coasting.
Coasting is automatically adapted to the driv-
ing situation in question.
the coasting drive state is displayed in the Live
Vehicle menu as efficient coasting.
For further information:
Live Vehicle, see page 141.
Examples of driving situations
If a distance can be covered without foreseea-
ble braking, it is advantageous to roll this dis-
tance.
The following examples of driving situations
may be suitable for this:
▷ Rolling on straight downhill gradient with
no obstacles.
▷ Rolling to a stop on a section of route with-
out obstacles.
Avoid late or heavy braking.
Operating requirements
▷ Selector lever position D is engaged.
▷ Brake is not depressed.
▷ Accelerator pedal is not operated.
▷ System detects a calm and smooth driving
style.
▷ Engine and transmission are at operating
temperature.
▷ The system does not detect any obstructive
traffic situations or routes.
The function is available in the speed range
from approx. 25 km/h, 16 mph to 160 km/h,
100 mph.
Operation via shift paddles
Principle
Depending on the equipment, the coasting
drive state can be controlled via the shift pad-
dles.
Activating/deactivating coasting via
shift paddles
Operate the right-hand shift paddle for longer
to activate.
Operate the left-hand shift paddle to deacti-
vate.
System limits
▷
In the case of navigation data that is inva-
lid, outdated or not available.
▷ If there are country-dependent restrictions
on map-based route sections.
