Nissan Juke Hybrid 2024 Owners Manual

2.10.2. When driving

  • Drive your vehicle with smooth start and acceleration.

    • Abrupt starting and acceleration will decrease fuel economy.

    • You can accelerate the vehicle with less fuel consumption by checking the condition of the power consumption in the power gauge.

  • Keep a distance from the vehicle in front of you. Do not decelerate the vehicle more than necessary so that you can decrease the fuel consumption to accelerate again.

  • Do not drive at excessive speeds on a highway. Driving at excessive speeds consumes fuel more than necessary.

  • Set the air conditioner at a moderate temperature and turn it off if unnecessary. Redundant fuel consumption can be reduced by the air conditioner.

  • Do not use the defogger more than necessary. After removing fog from the windshield, switching to the other air flow mode reduces the engine operation frequency and improve the fuel economy.

  • Drive the vehicle in ECO mode. Then the driving force response to accelerator operation is gentler than in STANDARD / SPORT mode; it suppresses unnecessary acceleration / deceleration and realizes fuel saving.

  • The fuel efficiency improves in the following order:

    SPORT mode → STANDARD mode → ECO mode. ECO mode is the most fuel-efficient mode.

The following are some conditions in which the fuel economy decreases significantly:

  • When driving on a route where there are many uphill roads.

  • When continuing driving at a high speed on a highway.

  • When starting, accelerating or braking abruptly.
