«EV Drive» for driving by the electric motor only, using electricity from the battery and
regeneration 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.
This system contributes to the improvement of fuel efficiency by increasing energy
regeneration using the clutches to disengage the engine
during deceleration.
The system also improves fuel economy by increasing energy
regeneration using the clutches to disengage the engine
during deceleration.
Overrun, or the so - called
regeneration phase, is one of the most important instruments of this vehicle concept for optimizing efficiency as it transforms the braking energy released
during deceleration phases back into electrical energy, instead of it being wasted and released as heat.
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.
Overrun, or the
regeneration phase as it is known, is one of this vehicle concept's most important instruments for optimising efficiency: the braking energy released
during deceleration phases is transformed back into electrical energy instead of it being released as heat and wasted.
Coordinated control of the hydraulic and regenerative braking systems maximises the
regeneration of energy by the electric motor
during deceleration and under braking.
