Vehicle features and options Adaptive recuperation
This chapter describes model-specific equip-
ment, systems, and functions that are currently
available, or may become available in the fu-
ture, even if they are not present in the vehicle.
Principle
Adaptive recuperation supports an anticipatory
and comfort-oriented driving style.
The system decides based on the situation
if and how much the energy is recovered
through recuperation or if the vehicle coasts.
Additional information:
Vehicle equipment, refer to page 8.
Depending on the strength of the recupera-
tion, the vehicle is decelerated differently while
coasting.
Increasing the range
Principle
General information
Various sensors analyze the current driving sit-
uation, e.g., the distance to the vehicle in front.
The vehicle contains comprehensive technolo-
gies for reducing energy consumption and for
maximizing the range.
Adaptive recuperation is available depending
on the equipment and national-market version.
There are some actions you can take to in-
crease your range:
▷
▷
▷
▷
Remove unnecessary cargo from the vehi-
cle.
Setting the recuperation level
The recuperation level can be adjusted.
Additional information:
Remove add-on parts, e.g., a rear carrier,
after use.

Coasting
Principle
Efficient mode
The electric drivetrain makes it possible to roll
without consuming energy. This driving condi-
tion is referred to as coasting.
Principle
Efficient mode helps promote an efficient driv-
ing style.
General information
An anticipatory driving style helps the driver
to use the function often and supports the en-
ergy-saving effect of coasting.
In addition, the efficiency trainer displays situa-
tion dependent notes to assist with an energy-
saving driving style.
Coasting is automatically adapted to the re-
spective driving situation.
Overview
The coasting mode is displayed in the Live Ve-
hicle menu as efficient coasting.
