Drive Habits: Aggressive driving increases the amount of energy
required to move your vehicle. In general, better fuel economy is
achieved with mild to moderate acceleration and deceleration. Moderate
braking is particularly important since it allows you to maximize the
energy captured by the regenerative braking system.
NOTE: Having your engine running is not always an indication of
inefficiency in some cases it is actually more efficient than driving in
electric mode.
Additional Tips:
Do not carry extra loads
Be mindful of adding external accessories that may increase
aerodynamic drag
Observe posted speed limits
Perform all scheduled maintenance
There is no need to wait for your engine to “warm up”. The vehicle is
ready to drive immediately after starting
