Switching recommendations in the Info Display you can always have the right gear at the right time load and thus help make more efficient use of fuel and reduce fuel consumption and emissions further.
Connected correctly - save fuel: Switching recommendations in the Info Display you can always engage the right gear at the right time. This allows the fuel used more efficiently and the fuel consumption and emissions can be further reduced.
Depending on driving conditions and speed the engine electronics calculates the currently most efficient gear. Is it possible fuel efficiency to drive in a higher gear and at lower speeds, a flashing arrow icon appears in the display between speed and velocity meter in conjunction with the appropriate gear indicator.
The switching time points are calculated dependent on the driving situation. So under hard acceleration the shift recommendations are displayed only at correspondingly higher speeds. Through timely switching, especially in urban and suburban traffic, fuel can be saved and the engine to develop its full potential.
