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.
