Adapting to the course of the road
Principle
When the navigation system destination
guidance is active, hybrid operation adapts
to specific route sections.
The hybrid system is used to optimum ef-
fect.
Situations which are already underway and
situations ahead are detected, indicated on
the Control Display, and the hybrid drive is
adapted and prepared for them.
The function may be restricted if the navi-
gation data is invalid, outdated or not avail-
able, for example.
Functional requirements
– Selector lever position D engaged.
– AUTO eDRIVE hybrid mode is activated.
Displaying the adaptation to the course of
the road
Via the Central Information Display (CID):
1. "My MINI"
2. "Technology in action"
3. "eDRIVE"
The icon on the Control Display indi-
cates that the function is active.
Display
Example: residential area or area with low
speed limits. ePOWER electric driving is
prepared before the residential area. When
the residential area is reached, electric driv-
ing is preferred.
Other situations are also shown on the Con-
trol Display:
– Downhill gradients.
– Destination regions.
– GREEN Mode: power supply.
Hills
The high-voltage battery is prepared for
charing before reaching a downhill gradient.
The vehicle drives electrically on the down-
hill gradient and the high-voltage battery is
charged, if necessary.
Destination region
ePOWER electric driving is prepared before
reaching the destination region. Electric
driving is preferred in the destination re-
gion.
Energy distribution
The electrical energy is conserved for a
later time. For instance, when driving on
highways or roads similar to highways, the
electrical energy is conserved for electric
driving in the city.
