Vehicle stop

The vehicle is stopped.

(No energy flow)

EV propulsion

Only motor power is used to drive the vehicle.

(Battery → Wheel)

Power assist

Both the motor and the engine power are used to drive the vehicle.

(Battery & Engine → Wheel)

Engine only propulsion

Only the engine power is used to drive the vehicle.

(Engine → Wheel)

Engine generation

When the vehicle is stopped, the high-voltage battery is charged by the engine.

(Engine → Battery)

Regeneration

The high-voltage battery is charged by the regenerative brake system.

(Wheel → Battery)

Engine brake

Engine braking is used to decelerate the vehicle.

(Wheel → Engine)

Power reserve

The engine is simultaneously used to drive the vehicle and to charge the high-voltage battery.

(Engine → Wheel & Battery)

Engine generation/motor drive

The engine charges the high-voltage battery. Motor power is used to drive the vehicle.

(Engine → Battery → Wheel)

Engine generation/regeneration

The engine and regenerative brake system charges the high-voltage battery.

(Engine & Wheel → Battery)

Engine brake/regeneration

The engine braking is simultaneously used to decelerate the vehicle and to charge the high-voltage battery.

(Wheel → Engine & Battery)

Start engine to avoid battery discharge

If the engine is not turned on with the ENGINE START/STOP button in ACC or ON for a while, the battery can be discharged. Turn on the engine to prevent 12V battery from discharge.
