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.

The efficient range of the power gauge is col-
ored blue. Additionally, the bonus range will be
displayed.
Efficiency trainer
The efficient range is adjusted depending on
the driving situation.
Principle
If the power gauge moves within the blue
range, the current driving style is efficient. The
display will change to gray if the driving style is
inefficient.
The system provides assistance for an antici-
patory and comfort-oriented driving style. For
this purpose, map information and sensor data
is used to analyze the current driving situation
such as upcoming speed limits and vehicles
driving ahead. Based on this information, the
driver receives notices for an efficient driving
style early on. The efficiency of the driving style
is evaluated in the control display and shown
in three categories.
Bonus range
A modified driving style helps
you extend your driving range.
The range extension is dis-
played as the bonus range in
the instrument cluster.
General information
The system has different displays to support
the driver with an efficient driving style.
If the bonus range is shown in gray or is hid-
den, the current driving style is inefficient.
The display turns blue as soon as all condi-
tions for energy-saving driving are met.
