Hyundai Ioniq: Driving your vehicle / Coasting Guide (Plug-in hybrid vehicle)

The coasting guide function informs the driver when to take the foot off from the accelerator by anticipating a decelerating event* based on the analysis of driving routes and road conditions of the navigation. It encourages the driver to remove foot from the pedal and allow coasting down the road with EV motor only. This helps prevent unnecessary fuel consumption and increases fuel efficiency.

Information

Example of a deceleration event is making a right/left turn, driving through a rotary, entering or exiting a highway (freeway), etc.

The driver can activate the coasting guide by placing the ignition switch in the ON position and by selecting:

• User settings

User Settings → Driver Assistance → Coasting Guide

For the explanation of the system, press and hold the [OK] button.

Operation conditions

- The operational speed is above 25 mph (40 km/h).

Information

Information

Coasting guide is only a supplemental system to assist with fuel-efficient driving. Thus, the operating conditions may be different in accordance with traffic/road conditions (i.e. driving in a traffic jam, driving on a slope, driving on a curve). Thus, take the actual driving conditions into consideration, such as distances from the vehicles ahead/ behind, while referring to the coasting guide system as guidance.
