Real-time score
Your driving “score” is shown as leaves, which
accumulate or diminish based on your driving style
and its impact on fuel economy.
When you turn the vehicle off, your drive cycle and
lifetime score are displayed.
Eco drive bar
The bar extends based on your driving style. The
more aggressive your acceleration or deceleration
is, the farther the bar extends from the center. Keep
the bar near the center line for more fuel efficient
driving.

Auto Idle Stop
Shuts the engine off at a stop in order to maximize fuel efficiency.
When the shift lever is in Drive (D) and the brake
pedal is pressed (or the clutch pedal is pressed
and the shift lever is in Neutral (N) for manual
transmission), the engine shuts off. The Auto Stop
indicator blinks.
The engine restarts when the brake pedal is
released (or the clutch pedal is pressed and the
shift lever is moved out of Neutral (N) for manual
transmission).
Idle stop occurrence and duration vary depending on certain conditions, including
sudden braking, climate control operation, IMA battery level, and outside
temperature.
Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA
®
), aka Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) System
Helps to stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less
than what was intended. It assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces by
regulating engine output and selectively applying the brakes.
Turning VSA On or Off
VSA is turned on every time you start the engine,
even if you previously turned it off. If you turn VSA
off, your vehicle has normal braking and cornering
ability, but not VSA traction and stability.
Press and hold the VSA OFF button until you hear a
beep to turn VSA on or off. The VSA OFF indicator
appears when the system is off.
When VSA is turned off, traction control stops functioning, which may make it
easier when trying to free your vehicle if it is stuck in mud or snow.
