Using i-PEDAL

i-PEDAL assists the driver to accelerate, decelerate, and stop the vehicle with only the accelerator pedal.

Turning on/off the i-PEDAL

  • Turning on i-PEDAL:

    Pull the left paddle shifter (°) once when the regenerative braking level is at 3. i-PEDAL is turned on and the instrument cluster displays the i-PEDAL message. i-PEDAL is not available while the smart regeneration system is on. Turn off the smart regeneration system first before using i-PEDAL.

  • Turning off i-PEDAL:

    Pull the right paddle shifter (²) once while the function is on. Otherwise, shift the gear to R (Reverse) then to D (Drive) while the function is on. i-PEDAL is disabled and regenerative braking level is set to 3.

  • Depending on the vehicle and road condition, the vehicle may not come to a stop although the i-PEDAL function is active. Check surroundings and depress the brake pedal to control the vehicle speed.

  • Do not use i-PEDAL on slippery roads.

i-PEDAL limitations

In the following conditions, the vehicle may not come to a stop although the i-PEDAL is properly activated. Depress the brake to stop the vehicle when:

  • Driving on a slope, or when the vehicle is repeatedly driven and stopped.

  • The vehicle is driving through the end of the slope.

  • Driving on a slippery surface such as an icy, rainy, or muddy road.

  • The wheels are not properly aligned.

  • A wheel slip or wheel spin occurs.

  • The weight on board is heavy.

  • The vehicle is tilted to the side.
