Intelligent (I) mode

For smooth, efficient performance driving
The Intelligent (I) mode provides wellbalanced performance with greater fuel efficiency and smooth driveability without stress. Power delivery is moderate during acceleration for maximum fuel efficiency.
This is ideal for around-town driving and situations that do not require full power output. It provides better control in difficult driving conditions, such as slippery roads or loose surfaces, due to gentler throttle response.

When Intelligent (I) mode is selected, a shift-up indicator “
” on the
combination meter will blink to signal the best time to shift gears for maximum fuel efficiency.
