194 Driving and Operating
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 signals,
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
0214.
Use the steering wheel Regen
on Demand paddle during
deceleration to help recover
energy. See Regenerative
Braking 0220. Terrain and Vehicle Speed
Higher speeds and grade
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
045 and
Heated Rear Seats 049.
Use the Remote Start Climate
Control feature to heat or cool
the interior while the vehicle is
plugged in to use electricity from the electrical outlet
instead of using energy from
the battery. See Remote Start
0
15.
In hot weather, avoid parking
in direct sunlight. Use
sunshades inside the vehicle.
Keep the inside of the
windows clean to reduce
fogging. Turn off the front
defroster and rear defogger
when they are not needed.
Avoid driving with the
windows open at highway
speeds.
Use the Battery Gauge on the
Instrument Cluster to view the
effect of climate control
settings on your estimated
range. See Battery Gauge
(High Voltage) 0110.
Outside Temperature
On colder days, it is best to
plug in the vehicle overnight,
and then remote start the
vehicle.

202 Driving and Operating
If the Vehicle Is Stuck
Slowly and cautiously spin the
wheels to free the vehicle
when stuck in sand, mud, ice,
or snow. See "Rocking the
Vehicle to Get It Out" later in
this section.
The Traction Control System
(TCS) can often help to free a
stuck vehicle. See Traction
Control/Electronic Stability
Control0221. If stuck too
severely for the TCS to free
the vehicle, turn off the TCS
and use the rocking method.
See "Rocking the Vehicle to
Get It Out" later in this section.
{Warning
If the vehicle’s tires spin at
high speed, they can
explode, and you or others
could be injured. Spin the
wheels as little as possible
and avoid going above
56 km/h (35 mph).
Rocking the Vehicle to Get
it Out
Turn the steering wheel left
and right to clear the area
around the front wheels. Turn
off the TCS. Shift back and
forth between R (Reverse) and
a forward gear, spinning the
wheels as little as possible. To
prevent electric drive unit
wear, wait until the wheels
stop spinning before shifting
gears. Slowly spinning the
wheels in the forward and
reverse directions causes a
rocking motion that could free
the vehicle. If that does not
get the vehicle out after a few
tries, it might need to be
towed out. See Transporting a
Disabled Vehicle 0359.
Vehicle Load Limits
It is very important to know
how much weight the
vehicle can carry. This
weight is called the vehicle
capacity weight and
includes the weight of all occupants, cargo, and all
nonfactory-installed
options. Two labels on the
vehicle may show how
much weight it may
properly carry, the Tire and
Loading Information label
and the Certification/Tire
label.
{Warning
Do not load the vehicle
any heavier than the
Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR), or either
the maximum front or
rear Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR). This can
cause systems to break
and change the way the
vehicle handles. This
could cause loss of
control and a crash.
Overloading can also
reduce stopping

cases when regenerative
braking is reduced. Friction
brakes will be used to hold the
vehicle after coming to a stop,
and a noise may be noticed
when the brakes apply. When driving on slippery
roads, it is recommended to
turn off One-Pedal Driving.
See Winter Driving
0201.

the Electric Parking Brake may
apply in some circumstances.
This can occur when:
.The driver exits the vehicle.
.The vehicle has remained
stationary for five minutes.
To resume driving, press the
accelerator pedal, and the
Electric Parking Brake will
automatically disengage.
Drive Systems
All-Wheel Drive
This vehicle may be equipped
with advanced electric
All-Wheel Drive (eAWD). The
eAWD system delivers power to all four wheels, and the
system adjusts automatically
to the driving conditions. The
eAWD system continuously
varies the drive power to the
front and rear wheels to
maximize driving efficiency and
improve driving dynamics.
Your vehicle has exceptional
driving capability, but care
must always be taken to
adjust driving style to the
traffic and road conditions.
The vehicle eAWD settings
may be customized for the
driver mode selected. See
Driver Mode Control
0223 for
more information.

Attention to the Road
{Warning
Super Cruise is a driver
assistance system and
cannot accurately detect or
predict all situations. Super
Cruise is not a crash
avoidance system. To
prevent serious injury or
death, you must supervise
the driving task and monitor
the road conditions. You
may need to respond to
traffic events by steering,
braking, or accelerating. See
Defensive Driving 0196.
Super Cruise also cannot
determine whether you are
awake, asleep, impaired,
or properly focused on safe
driving. The vehicle could
crash into other vehicles,
drive out of the lane, or drive (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
off the road. Complete
attention is always required
while driving, even while
using Super Cruise. Be
prepared to take over
steering or apply the brakes
at any time.
{Warning
To prevent serious injury or
death, be alert and pay
special attention when
passing highway exits,
entrances, and crossings
with Super Cruise, and be
ready to take control of the
vehicle when necessary.
Changes in lane markings
around exits and entrances
can momentarily cause
Super Cruise to not detect
the correct lane. If this
occurs, Super Cruise may
attempt steering inputs to
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
bring the vehicle back into
the correct lane and, in rare
circumstances, could
over-correct and cause the
vehicle to momentarily cross
into a lane next to your
vehicle unless you manually
steer to maintain your lane
position.
The Driver Attention System
(DAS) on the steering column
continually monitors driver
head and eye position to
estimate driver attention to
the road. The camera does not
record or share pictures,
audio, or video.
