HI-CRUISE (dependent on vehicle equipment):
The purpose of HI-CRUISE is to ensure optimal fuel consumption and ideal time savings for the vehicle when the cruise
control is switched on, by causing the vehicle to drive in a predictive and economical manner.
HI-CRUISE makes use of a predictive driving strategy to identify the optimal gear and driving pattern for the roadway ahead
early on using the automatic Hi-TroniX transmission.
Activating “Predictive Drive” mode via the Quick menu activates the following predictive functions:
▪ PECC - Predictive Economy Cruise Control (see operating manual)
▪ Prevision mode of the Hi-TroniX transmission (Predictive Gear Shifting). GPS predictive driving implements an expanded
EcoRoll strategy. Additional roll phases are added: increasing the roll phases step by step (for instance over short
downward slopes, see the operating manual)
The cruise control values on the display will be green when HI-CRUISE is active.
GPS-CONTROLLED CRUISE CONTROL (HI-CRUISE)
NOTE: HI-Cruise helps the driver to drive in an economical manner. It does not replace the
driver’s responsibility for proper driving according to the Straßenverkehrsordnung (StVO -
German Road Traffic Act)!
