Coasting
Concept
The function helps to conserve fuel.
To do this, under certain conditions the engine is automatically decoupled from the transmisjsion when selector lever position D is set. The
vehicle continues traveling with the engine idling to reduce fuel consumption. Selector
lever position D remains engaged.
This driving condition is referred to as coastj
ing.
As soon as you step on the brake or acceleraj tor pedal, the engine is automatically coupledagain.
General
information Coasting is a component of the ECO PRO drivj
ing mode.
Coasting is automatically activated when ECO PRO mode is called via the Driving Dynamics
Control.
The function is available in a certain speed
range.
A proactive driving style helps the driver to use
the function often and supports the fuel-conj
serving effect of coasting.
Functional
requirements
In ECO PRO mode, this function is available in
a speed range from approximately 30 mph/50 km/h to 100 mph/160 km/h if thefollowing conditions are met:
