Plug-in hybrid functions
Applies to: ve hicles with plug- in hybrid drive
The funct ions descr ibed below act ivate automati
cally depend ing on the dr iv ing style.
Full -throttle acceleration (boost)
The boost function is activated by pressing the
accelerator pedal farther down (kick-down) . The
vehicle is powered by both the gaso line engine
and the electric motor when in full accelerat ion.
Boost is only available for a sho rt time, because it
uses a large amount of energy. Availab ility de
pends o n the high-voltage battery cha rge level.
Coasting
The gaso line engine switches off and disengages
at speeds up to approximately 112 mph
(180 km/h) if the accelerator pedal is not press
ed and the D position is selected. Dr iv ing conser
vative ly like this can reduce fuel consumption .

Energy recovery (recuperation)
When braking, the elec tric moto r will act as a
generato r creating ele ct ric energy that is then
stored in the high -voltage battery. This also oc
c ur s when the vehicle is coasting or driving down
hill.
If the brakes are applied early and evenly, the
electric motor w ill brake the vehicle @
¢page 97, fig. 103. By doing this, a large
amount of the kinetic energy is recovered and
may be stored as electric energy in the high-volt
age battery . The conventional brakes are also ac
t ivated when the brakes are pressed very hard .
The strength of recuperation can depend on the
follow ing factors:
- If you are in tiptron ic mode
¢page 90. Or
- If the sport dr iv in g mode S was se lected .
The energy recovery is shown in the energy flow
display in the instrument cluster display/I nfo
