Driving Information
Driving for Better Energy
Efficiency
Use the following tips to help maximize
energy efficiency and driving range.
The Energy Usage card available on the
Driver Information Center (DIC) estimates
the influence of the main factors impacting
vehicle range. It displays how energy is
being used for the current drive
as percentages of overall vehicle energy use.
See Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base
Level) 0129 or
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel)
0 130 and
Vehicle Status 0132.
Acceleration/Braking/Coasting
Avoid rapid accelerations and decelerations.
Driving range is maximized at 89 km/h
(55 mph) and less.
Use cruise control when appropriate.
Using the steering wheel paddle during
deceleration recovers more energy. See
Regenerative Braking 0206. Terrain and Vehicle Speed
Plan ahead for decelerations and coast
whenever possible. Do not rush to traffic
signals. Do not shift to N (Neutral) to coast.
Higher speeds and grade changes use more
energy and can significantly reduce driving
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 seat features instead of
climate control system. Heating the seat
uses less energy than heating and cooling
the interior.
Use remote start to heat or cool the interior
when the vehicle is plugged in to maximize
the driving range by using electricity from
the electrical outlet.
In hot weather, avoid parking in direct
sunlight or use sunshades inside the vehicle.

16702912) - 2024 - CRC - 1/17/23
Driving and Operating 185
The vehicle's right wheels can drop off the
edge of a road onto the shoulder while
driving. Follow these tips:1. Ease off the accelerator and then, if there is nothing in the way, steer the
vehicle so that it straddles the edge of
the pavement.
2. Turn the steering wheel about one-eighth of a turn, until the right front
tire contacts the pavement edge.
3. Turn the steering wheel to go straight down the roadway.
Loss of Control
Skidding
There are three types of skids that
correspond to the vehicle's three control
systems:
.Braking Skid —wheels are not rolling.
.Steering or Cornering Skid —too much
speed or steering in a curve causes tires
to slip and lose cornering force.
.Acceleration Skid —too much throttle
causes the driving wheels to spin.
Antilock brakes help to avoid only the
braking skid. Defensive drivers avoid most skids by taking
reasonable care suited to existing conditions,
and by not exceeding those conditions. But
skids are always possible.
If the vehicle starts to skid, follow these
suggestions:
.Ease your foot off the accelerator pedal
and steer the way you want the vehicle
to go. The vehicle may straighten out,
but if it skids again from oversteer, be
ready to correct another skid if it occurs.
.Slow down and adjust your driving
according to weather conditions. Stopping
distance may be longer and vehicle
control may be affected when traction is
reduced by water, snow, ice, gravel,
or other material on the road. Learn to
recognize warning clues
—such as
enough water, ice, or packed snow on the
road to make a mirrored surface —and
slow down when you have any doubt.
.Try to avoid sudden steering, acceleration,
or braking, including reducing vehicle
speed by shifting to a lower gear. Any
sudden changes could cause the tires to
slide.
Off-Road Driving
Four-wheel-drive vehicles can be used for
off-road driving. Vehicles without four-wheel
drive and vehicles not equipped with All
Terrain (AT) or On-Off Road (OOR) tires must
not be driven off-road except on a level,
solid surface. For contact information about
the original equipment tires, see the
warranty manual.
One of the best ways for successful off-road
driving is to control the speed.
{Warning
When driving off-road, bouncing and
quick changes in direction can easily
throw you out of position. This could
cause you to lose control and crash. You
and your passengers should always wear
seat belts.
Off-Road Vehicle Features
If equipped, the following off-road features
may be available:
.Four-Wheel Steering: Provides the ability
to steer the vehicle with all four wheels,
reducing the turning diameter and
improving maneuverability of the vehicle.
See Four-Wheel Steering 0210.

Warning (Continued)
another vehicle. You could be seriously
injured or killed. As you near the top of a
hill, slow down and stay alert.
.When possible, drive straight up or down
the hill.
.Slow down when approaching the top of
the hill.
.Use headlamps even during the day to
make the vehicle more visible.
.Never go downhill forward or backward
with the vehicle in N (Neutral). The brakes
could overheat and you could lose
control.
.When driving down a hill, keep the
vehicle headed straight down. Use L (Low)
mode to slow the vehicle and help keep
the vehicle under control.
{Warning
Do not coast downhill in N (Neutral) or
with the vehicle turned off. SeeHill and
Mountain Roads 0190 for tips on
maximizing regenerative braking and
minimizing the load on the brake system. (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Heavy braking when going down a hill
can cause your brakes to overheat and
fade. This could cause loss of control and
you or others could be injured or killed.
Apply the brakes lightly when descending
a hill and use a low mode to keep vehicle
speed under control.
.Avoid turns that take the vehicle across
the incline of the hill. Driving across an
incline puts more weight on the downhill
wheels, which could cause a downhill
slide or a rollover.
.Loose gravel, muddy spots, or even wet
grass can cause the tires to slip sideways,
downhill. If the vehicle slips sideways, it
can hit an object or a rut and potentially
roll over.
.Hidden obstacles can make the steepness
of the incline more severe. If a rock is
driven across with the uphill wheels, or if
the downhill wheels drop into a rut or
depression, the vehicle can tilt even more.
.If an incline must be driven across, and
the vehicle starts to slide, turn downhill.
This should help straighten out the
vehicle and prevent side slipping.
{Warning
Getting out of the vehicle on the
downhill side when stopped across an
incline is dangerous. If the vehicle rolls
over, you could be crushed or killed.
Always get out on the uphill side of the
vehicle and stay well clear of the
rollover path.
Driving in Mud, Sand, Snow, or Ice
Use L (Low) mode when driving in mud.
Keep the vehicle moving to avoid getting
stuck.
Traction changes when driving on sand. On
loose sand, such as on beaches or sand
dunes, the tires tend to sink into the sand.
This affects steering, accelerating, and
braking. Drive at a reduced speed and avoid
sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers.
Traction is reduced on hard-packed snow and
ice, and it is easy to lose control. Reduce
vehicle speed when driving on hard-packed
snow and ice.

204 Driving and Operating
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
for maximum vehicle stability. SeeWinter
Driving 0191.
One-Pedal Driving is a useful feature when
towing a trailer, however, using the brake
pedal may be required to slow down and
hold the vehicle with large loads or steep
hills. Trailer brakes are only activated with
the brake pedal but trailer brake lights will
be functional during substantial deceleration
or when the vehicle is stopped. See Trailer
Towing 0297.
While using One-Pedal Driving, the Electric
Parking Brake (EPB) 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 EPB will automatically
disengage.
Drive Systems
Four-Wheel Drive
This vehicle is equipped with advanced
electric four-wheel drive (e4WD). The e4WD
system delivers power to all four wheels,
and the system adjusts automatically to the
driving conditions. The e4WD 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.
Torque Vectoring
If equipped, the torque vectoring feature of
e4WD enhances vehicle performance by
focusing the vehicle torque to the optimal
wheel(s).
The vehicle e4WD settings may be
customized for the driver mode selected. See
Driver Mode Control 0209 for more
information.
Brakes
Antilock Brake System (ABS)
The Antilock Brake System (ABS) helps
prevent a braking skid and maintain steering
while braking hard.
If there is a problem with ABS, this warning
light stays on. See Antilock Brake System
(ABS) Warning Light 0116.
ABS does not change the time needed to
get a foot on the brake pedal and does not
always decrease stopping distance. If you
get too close to the vehicle ahead, there will
not be enough time to apply the brakes if
that vehicle suddenly slows or stops. Always
leave enough room ahead to stop, even
with ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Hearing and feeling ABS
operate is normal.

This vehicle is equipped with four-wheel
steering. This feature steers the vehicle with
all four wheels, which reduces the vehicle
turn diameter and improves maneuverability
of the vehicle.
At slower speeds the front and rear wheels
will turn in opposite directions. This helps
the vehicle make tighter turns, such as
during parking, cornering and turning into
tight spaces. At higher speeds the front and
rear wheels will turn in the same direction.
This improves stability of the vehicle during
lane changes and wide turns
When the vehicle is shut-off, the rear
steering angle will automatically return to
the forward position.
Four-wheel steering is not operational when
Super Cruise is active. See Super Cruise
0 227.

16702912) - 2024 - CRC - 1/17/23
Driving and Operating 211
Maximum vehicle speed may be limited if
the four-wheel steering system becomes
inoperable.
When towing a trailer the four-wheel
steering provides enhanced stability allowing
the trailer to follow the path of the tow
vehicle more closely, especially during lane
changes. SeeGeneral Towing Information
0 293 for more information on towing a
trailer.
Four-Wheel Steering Behavior at 0 MPH
The rear wheels may not steer to full travel
when the vehicle is stationary. Additional
travel may be achieved once the vehicle
begins to move.
Care should be taken to ensure the vehicle
path is clear of obstacles if the rear tires
steer once the vehicle is moving.
Limited-Slip Differential
If equipped, the limited-slip differential can
give more traction on snow, mud, ice, sand,
or gravel. It works like a standard axle most
of the time, but when traction is low, this
feature allows the drive wheel with the
most traction to move the vehicle. For
vehicles with the limited-slip differential, driven under severe conditions, the rear axle
fluid should be changed. See
Maintenance
Schedule 0389.
Air Suspension
If equipped, the Air Suspension feature
provides full time load leveling capability
along with the benefit of adjusting ride
height for increased convenience and
capability.
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or death,
make sure the area underneath the
vehicle and inside the wheel wells is clear
when lowering the vehicle.
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or death,
