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.
