Kia Niro: LCD Modes / Coasting guide

A chime will sound and the coasting guide indicator will blink four times to inform the driver when to take the foot off from the accelerator by anticipating a decelerating event* based on the analysis of driving routes and road conditions of the navigation. It encourages the driver to remove foot from the pedal and allow coasting down the road with EV motor only. This helps prevent unnecessary fuel consumption and increases fuel efficiency.

❈ Example of a deceleration event is going down an extended hill, slowing down approaching a toll booth, and approaching reduced speed zones.
