Function of the route-based operating-mode strategy
When route guidance is active, data on the planned route is analysed.
The multimedia system provides the following data:
road types
speed limitations
height data
The hybrid system adjusts the operating-mode strategy accordingly:
the use of electrical energy and the combustion engine are distributed in the best possible way.
the vehicle automatically selects the best possible operating mode.
the charge level of the high-voltage battery is controlled accordingly.
the electrical energy is reserved especially for electric mode, e.g. urban route sections and environmental zones.
