Sentences with phrase «mode during deceleration»

This assistance takes three forms: electrically motored creep at startup, light power assist during acceleration, and light electric mode during deceleration.

Not exact matches

Shift paddles let you select four different driving modes: (1) automatic for unobtrusive performance; (2) minimal brake regeneration for highway cruising; (3) maximum brake regeneration for optimal off - throttle deceleration in traffic and during sporting driving; and (4) an automated mode with radar - optimized cruise control to apply the brakes when slow traffic is sensed ahead.

i - ELOOP also achieves better gas mileage by disengaging the energy sapping alternator during acceleration, i - ELOOP is an innovative use of existing alternator waste energy in deceleration mode, which can happen more frequently than regenerative braking, common in hybrid cars.

While the car is on the move, the electric drive itself contributes to a favourable energy balance through recuperation, by converting kinetic energy into electric current in deceleration mode and during braking and feeding this energy into the battery.

Under acceleration the mild hybrid system provides up to 10kW of electric power assistance to the powertrain in «motor» mode, while in «generator» mode, the system harvests kinetic energy from the vehicle during in - gear deceleration and braking and uses the power to recharge the batteries.

Still, there are enhancements for the 2015 model year, including a standard backup camera and leather - wrapped steering wheel, a new «Brake» drive mode on the gearshift that increases regenerative braking during deceleration, a light in the charging port and the ability to unlock its little door from the key fob, as well as an available energy - saving hybrid heater system.

All - electric mode is enabled during startup and low - to medium - speed cruising by using the clutches to disengage the engine; the system also contributes to the improvement of fuel economy by increasing energy regeneration using the clutches to disengage the engine during deceleration.

While the car is on the move, the system converts kinetic energy into electric current in deceleration mode and during braking, feeding this energy into the lithium - ion battery, which is located underfloor.

Engine off at idle Low - speed, electric - only propulsion Cutting off fuel to the engine during vehicle deceleration Regenerative braking Energy - efficient accessory systems Unlike single - mode hybrid technology found in competitors» SUVs, the two - mode system maximizes city and highway fuel economy by integrating two electric continuously variable modes with four fixed mechanical gear ratios.

While the car is on the move, the electric drive itself converts kinetic energy into electric current in deceleration mode and during braking and feeding this energy into the battery.

In «generator» mode, the system harvests kinetic energy from the vehicle during in - gear deceleration and braking and uses the power to recharge the batteries.

In M mode, the driver experiences the feel of a manual transmission, specifically the immediate G - forces during acceleration and deceleration.
