Hybrid Synergy Drive System
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer
controlled gasoline engine and electric motor to
provide the most efficient combination of power for
the vehicle. To conserve energy, when the brakes
are applied, braking force generates electricity
which is then sent to the traction battery. In
addition, the engine shuts off when the vehicle is
stopped. The benefits are better fuel economy,
reduced vehicle emissions and improved
performance.
Note: Fuel consumption and energy information
of the Hybrid System are shown on the
multi-information display. Refer to this
screen for important driving information
and feedback to maximize energy
use/creation and conserve fuel.
Tips for improved fuel economy
-Ensure tire pressures are maintained at levels
specified in the Owner's Manual.
-If possible, link trips to reduce engine cold starts.
-Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than
necessary, especially on the highway.
-When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize
regenerative braking energy.
-Minimize use of the Air Conditioning.
Refer to the
Owner’s Manual for more details.
