ECONOMY MODE
Economy Mode
•
When the driver selects the economy operating mode using the
gear selector lever, the regenerative brake function is enhanced to
increase vehicle range.
•
The economy mode applies a higher regenerative motor torque to
the rear wheels, allowing more power to be recovered and stored in
the Traction Battery.
•
The economy mode also limits the top speed of the vehicle to
104 km/h (65 mph).
