Prius Offers 4 Drive Modes
The Prius Gen 3 offers four different driving modes that make this vehicle practical in any environment. Season or terrain is no match for the preparedness of the Prius to get you there and back with the best fuel economy possible.
The same level of power is present in all drive modes each can be used for different circumstances to improve fuel economy which is based on the need and frequency for acceleration in certain driving situations. When the different modes are enabled it allows either more or less control on the push for power to the car by way of the gas petal. Drivers who are familiar with how to use these different modes are best able to maximize the efficiency that each mode offers.
- Normal mode is used typically for easy and light driving on routes or highways not requiring frequent stop and go situations.
- Eco Mode is best for normal predictable driving situations as well as in city driving because it automatically maximizes fuel efficiency especially in non-highway driving situations.
- PWR mode may be used effectively in situations that may require the driver to slow or speed up or quickly put on the brake petal such as on windy roads or for mountain road driving that often requires quick and anticipated slowing down or speeding up frequently.
- EV mode can be driven in slower driving situations such as inner city or a Sunday drive around town, it is typically used under 31 miles per hour. It is excellent for the environment and maximizes on fuel use. The driver can opt to manually switch this mode when driving in these circumstances.
