STARTING AND DRIVING

* Option/accessory.

Pure
Drive the car with electric motor, with
energy consumption as low as possible
and with lowest possible carbon dioxide
emissions.
The drive mode prioritises driving on the
hybrid battery. This means, for example, that
the output of certain climate settings is
reduced to provide the longest possible mile-
age on electric power alone.
The
Pure mode is available when the hybrid
battery has a sufficiently high energy level. The
internal combustion engine also starts in the
Pure mode if the energy level in the battery
falls too low. The internal combustion engine
also starts
if the speed exceeds 125 km/h (78 mph)
if the driver requests more motive force
than electric drive can provide
in the event of system/component limita-
tions e.g. low outside temperature.
The drive mode is adapted for maximum range
with electric propulsion and especially devel-
oped for urban traffic.
Pure means lowest
combustion even when the hybrid battery is
empty.
ECO climate control
In the Pure drive mode, eco climate control is
activated automatically in the passenger com-
partment in order to reduce energy consump-
tion.
NOTE
When the Pure drive mode is activated,
several parameters in the climate control
system's settings are changed, and several
electricity consumer functions are reduced.
Certain settings can be reset manually, but
full functionality is only regained by leaving
Pure drive mode or adapting Individual
drive mode with full climate functionality.
In the event of difficulties due to misting,
press the button for max. defroster which has
normal functionality.
Power
The car has sportier characteristics and
faster response to accelerating.
The drive mode adapts the combined output
of the internal combustion engine and electric
motor. The gear changes become faster and
more distinct, and the gearbox prioritises a
gear with greater traction. Steering response
is faster and shock absorption is harder.
The drive mode is adapted for maximum per-
formance and response on acceleration. It
changes the internal combustion engine's
accelerator pedal response, gear shift pattern
and boost pressure system. Chassis settings,
steering and brake response are also as good
as possible.
Power drive mode is always avail-
able regardless of the battery's state of
charge.
The
Power mode is also available in the
Polestar Engineered version*.
