Engine off/coasting
Principle
The drive system allows the vehicle to roll
freely with minimal deceleration in selector
lever position D. This driving condition is refer-
red to as coasting. This reduces fuel consump-
tion.
Vehicles with mild hybrid technology do not
consume fuel when coasting.
General information
An anticipatory driving style helps the driver
to use the function often and supports the effi-
cient effect of coasting.
Coasting is automatically adapted to the re-
spective driving situation.
The coasting mode is displayed in the Live Ve-
hicle menu as efficient coasting.
