AnswerQuestion
In order to make sure that the climate control system can begin heating
the cabin or defrosting the windshield as soon as a driver requests
it, the engine coolant temperature has to be kept sufficiently hot.
Keeping the engine on is required to maintain the correct coolant
temperature.
Why does my engine stay on when it is extremely cold outside?
Your vehicle's engine and transmission are designed to deliver the
power you need at the most efficient engine speed. This may be
higher than expected during heavy accelerations, and may fluctuate
when driving at a steady speed. These are characteristics of the
Atkinson engine cycle and the transmission technology that help
maximize your hybrid's fuel economy.
Why does my engine rev up so high sometimes when I accelerate?
Your hybrid vehicle can use E15 (15% ethanol, 85% gasoline) fuel, but
you may notice slightly reduced fuel economy because ethanol
contains less energy per gallon than gasoline. Your hybrid vehicle is
not designed to use E85 (85% ethanol).
Can I put E15 or E85 in my vehicle, and how will it affect my fuel
economy?
The high voltage battery system is designed to last the life of the
vehicle and does not require any maintenance.
How long will my high voltage battery last? Does it need maintenance?
There are no provisions for charging the conventional hybrid high
voltage battery from a power supply external to the vehicle.
Can you charge the battery with a plug into an AC outlet?
Yes. Your hybrid vehicle can be flat towed with all four wheels on
the ground.
Can I tow the hybrid behind my motor home with all four wheels on
the ground?
