About engine braking
When shift position B is selected,
releasing the accelerator pedal will
apply engine braking.
When the vehicle is driven at high
●
speeds, compared to ordinary gaso-
line-fueled vehicles, the engine brak-
ing deceleration is felt less than that of
other vehicles.
The vehicle can be accelerated even
●
when shift position B is selected.
If the vehicle is driven continuously in
the B position, fuel efficiency will
become low. Usually, select the D posi-
tion.
