Driving Information
Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency
Use the tips in the categories below to help
maximise energy efficiency and range.
In colder temperatures, while these
efficiency tips will help, the electric vehicle
driving range will be lower due to higher
energy usage including energy spent
heating the cabin.
The Energy Usage card available on the
Driver Information Centre (DIC) estimates
the influence of the main factors impacting
vehicle range. It displays how energy is
being used for the current drive since the
last time the vehicle was started. See Driver
Information Centre (DIC) 0 105 and
Vehicle Status 0 106.
Acceleration/Braking/Coasting
Avoid rapid accelerations and decelerations.
Use cruise control when appropriate.
Plan ahead for decelerations, and coast
whenever possible. Do not rush to traffic
lights, and do not shift to N (Neutral) to
coast.
Use the One-Pedal Driving feature when
appropriate to help recover energy during
coasting and braking. One-Pedal mode
recovers more energy while coasting and
braking than D (Drive) mode. See One-Pedal
Driving 0 165.
Use the steering wheel Regen on Demand
paddle during deceleration to help recover
energy. See Regenerative Braking 0 169.
Terrain and Vehicle Speed
Higher speeds and gradient changes use
more energy and can significantly reduce
electric range.
Climate Setting
Using the heat and air conditioning systems
decreases the energy available for electric
driving. Optimal energy efficiency is
achieved when the heat, air conditioning,
and fan are turned off.
Use the heated and ventilated seat features
(if equipped) instead of the climate control
system. Heating and ventilating the seat
uses less energy than heating and cooling
the interior. See Heated and Ventilated Front
Seats 0 40 and Heated Rear Seats 0 44.
