Which drive modes can I select?

The car is powered by two motors - an electric motor and

a diesel engine. Different drive modes can be selected. It

is not possible to select the "wrong" drive mode - the car

returns to the HYBRID mode if certain conditions are not

met. The lamp in the hybrid button will then illuminate.

HYBRID

This is the car's preset drive mode. Both the motor

and the engine are used - alone or in parallel, and

a computer determines what is most appropriate in

each case.

PURE

The car is powered by the electric motor. Air condi-

tioning is switched off in order to obtain the longest

possible driving distance. The diesel engine starts

automatically when the battery needs to be charged

or when the driver requests more power than the

electric motor can supply. The diesel engine is also

used to provide all-wheel drive if required, e.g. when

starting and on slippery surfaces.

POWER

Provides the best response and performance by

means of both the electric motor and the diesel

engine being activated the whole time. Driving in

a lower gear is prioritised for active driving, which

results in delayed upshifting.

AWD

All-wheel drive is activated. Primarily intended for low

speed in slippery driving conditions when better grip

and traction are required. The drive mode also has a

stabilising effect at higher speeds.

SAVE

Maintains current energy level in the battery for later

needs. In the event of low charge level the battery

will also be charged to a level equivalent to approx.

20 km electric operation. Select PURE when electric

operation is required.
