■
Checking tire inflation pressure
Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure frequently. If there
is improper tire inflation pressure in the tires, the driving range
when in EV mode will become shorter, and fuel consumption
when in HV mode will increase.
Also, as snow tires can cause large amounts of friction, their use
on dry roads can lead to increased fuel and electricity consump-
tion.
■
Luggage
Carrying heavy luggage can require excessive energy. Avoid
leaving unnecessary luggage in the vehicle.
Also, equipping a large roof rack can cause excessive energy
consumption in the same way as carrying heavy luggage.
■
Warming up before driving
Since the gasoline engine starts up and cuts out automatically,
warming up is not necessary.
