consumption.
Blue “Energy recovery” A usage
zone
When driving, if you lift your foot off the
accelerator pedal or apply the brake,
the motor generates electrical current
during deceleration, and this energy is
used to slow down the vehicle and re-
charge the traction battery.
Fuel consumption is accredited in ac-
cordance with a standard regulatory
method. Identical for all manufacturers,
this enables vehicles to be compared
with one another. Consumption in real
time depends on vehicle usage condi-
tions, equipment fitted and the user’s
driving style. To optimise fuel con-
sumption, please refer to the following
advice.
Depending on the vehicle, you will have
various functions which enable you to
lower your fuel consumption:
– charge meter;
– the driving style indicator;
– the journey record and eco-driving
advice via the multimedia display;
– ECO mode – activated by the ECO button.
If fitted on the vehicle, the navigation
system provides additional information.
The presence and display of this in-
formation depends on the type of
ambiance selected. Please see the
information on “Displays and indica-
tors” in Section 1.
