Driving Tips to Maximize Range
Driving Tips to Maximize Range
-
Remove any unnecessary cargo to reduce vehicle load weight.
-
Ensure your tires are maintained at their specified inflation pressures. See Maintaining Tire Pressures.
-
Keep all windows closed when possible to reduce drag.
-
Avoid abrupt and/or frequent acceleration. Try to maintain an even speed.
-
When it is safe to do so, use less pressure on the accelerator to gradually slow the vehicle instead of using the brake. See Regenerative Braking.
-
Switch into Earth Mode if road conditions allow and if you are able to safely handle the vehicle’s reduced control responses. See Drive Modes.
-
Limit the use of the heating and air conditioning controls when possible. Using seat heaters to keep warm is a more energy-efficient alternative than heating the entire cabin.
