Hybrid Synergy Drive System
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline \
engine
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power fo\
r the
vehicle. When the brakes are applied, the braking force generates electr\
icity, which
is then sent to the traction battery to conserve energy. In addition, th\
e engine shuts
off when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fuel economy an\
d reduced
vehicle emissions.
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the Hybrid System are shown on the Multi-Information Display (MID) and the audio system
screen (navigation system or multi-media system.)
- Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’\
s Manual.
- Link trips to reduce engine cold starts whenever possible.
- Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on \
the highway.
- When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking ene\
rgy.
- Minimize use of the Air Conditioning.
(1) Put the shift lever in “Park.”
(2) Depress the brake pedal, and “
” will be displayed on the Multi-Information
Display.
(3) Push the “POWER” button briefly and firmly.
(4) The “READY” light will blink. After a few seconds, when the light \
remains steady
and a beep sounds, shift the gear to the desired position and you may be\

EV drive mode
In EV drive mode, electric power is supplied by the hybrid battery (tra\
ction battery),
and only the electric motor (traction motor) is used to drive the vehi\
cle.
This mode allows you to drive in residential areas early in the morning \
and late at
night, or in indoor parking lots etc. without concern for noises and gas\
emissions.
However, when the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System is active, the vehicl\
e may
produce sound.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for limitations and more details.

Sport mode
Use Sport mode when increased acceleration response and precise handling\
is
desired, for example, when driving on mountain roads.

Use Eco drive mode to help achieve low fuel consumption during trips tha\
t involve
frequent accelerating.
