DRIVING AND OPERATING
227
Sport
Mode
Sport Mode provides more responsive
acceleration than Tour Mode, but can
reduce efficiency. Use Tour Mode
whenever possible.
During some conditions, certain drive
modes may be unavailable. The
unavailable mode is grayed out in the
DIC menu and cannot be selected.
If in Sport or Hold Mode, the mode
may become unavailable and the
vehicle will return to Tour Mode. The
indicator light goes off and a DIC
message displays.
Press MODE to select Sport Mode.
Press MODE again to return to Tour
Mode and it becomes active after
three seconds.
Hold
Mode
Use Hold Mode on a trip where it is
expected that all of the electric charge
will be depleted. Use Hold Mode
mainly during highway or high speed
driving to maximize both PLUG-IN
propulsion miles and fuel efficiency.
This mode places the remaining
battery charge into a reserve for the
driver to use as desired. Selecting this
mode transitions the vehicle to
gasoline propulsion to maintain the
battery charge reserve. The reserve
battery charge will appear grayed out
while in this mode.
Upon exiting Hold Mode, the reserved
battery charge becomes available
again and the vehicle returns to
PLUG-IN propulsion.
Hold Mode will not change normal
vehicle acceleration or braking
performance.
Press MODE to select Hold Mode.
Press MODE again to return to Tour
Mode and it becomes active after
three seconds.
Out of Fuel/Engine
Unavailable
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, or the
engine will not start due to a
malfunction, the vehicle can continue
to be driven with electric propulsion
until the current charge is depleted.
The vehicle will have less responsive
acceleration. DIC messages indicate
reduced propulsion power, that the
engine is not available, and the need
for fuel or service.
