SHIFT CONTROL SYSTEM
This vehicle is equipped with an electric shift
control system, providing smooth and easy shift
lever operation.

There are five shift positions for operating the
vehicle: P (PARK) , R (REVERSE) ,
N (NEUTRAL) , D (DRIVE) and B-Mode.
• P (PARK) – Activated by pushing
the P (PARK) switch on the shift lever when the
vehicle has come to a complete stop.
• D (DRIVE) – For normal driving, it is activated by moving the shift lever left and
down. The shift lever will then return to the center position.
• B-Mode – Engages the regenerative braking system more aggressively when
decelerating, helping to put energy back into the battery pack. To enter B-Mode,
the vehicle must be in D (DRIVE) and then move the shift lever to the D (DRIVE)
position again. The shift lever will then return to the center position.

ECO – Consumes less power and helps extend vehicle range.
• While in either D (DRIVE) or B-Mode, ECO can be activated by pressing the ECO
button on the right side of the steering wheel.
• While in ECO, there will be a reduced acceleration response.
For more information, refer to the “EV overview (section EV)” and the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your
Owner’s Manual.
