Deceleration Selectors (Hybrid Vehicles)

What’s the Benefit?

The deceleration selectors make for a more engaging driving experience and even provide enhanced performance.


The Feature:

Hybrid models extend greater control to the driver with deceleration selectors.

  • Pulling the “minus” paddle increases the regenerative braking effect, providing a feel similar to downshifting a conventional vehicle.
  • Four levels of regenerative braking are available through the paddles.
  • Pulling the “plus” paddle decreases the regenerative braking until the normal level is restored.
  • When Sport mode is engaged, the regenerative braking will remain at the level selected until another is chosen; in normal or ECON mode, the regenerative braking will return to the normal level automatically after a few seconds.
