Efficiency trainer
Principle
The Efficiency Coach supports an anticipa-
tory and comfort-oriented driving style. To
do so, map and sensor data is used to ana-
lyze the current driving situation, e.g., pre-
ceding vehicles. Based on this information,
the driver receives notices for an efficient
driving style early on.
General information
The system has different displays to support
the driver with an efficient driving style.
Functional requirements
Note the following functional requirements
when using the Efficiency Coach:
– Selector lever position D is engaged.
– It may be necessary to activate Experi-
ence View in the MINI Modes settings.
Display
General information
When Green Mode is enabled, the view on
the Interaction Unit switches to the specific
Green Mode view.
In addition, full-screen view and minimal-
ist view contain visualizations for the Effi-
ciency Coach.
Some system information can also be dis-
played in the Head-up display.
The efficient range of the power gauge is
colored green. Additionally, the bonus range
will be displayed.
The bonus range and animal symbols for ef-
ficient driving styles are displayed, depend-
ing on the driving situation.
If the power gauge moves within the green
range, the current driving style is efficient.
If the driving style is inefficient, the dis-
play changes to red and the animal symbol
changes.
Additional information:
Power gauge, refer to page 140.
Bonus range
A modified driving style helps
you extend your driving range.
The extended range is dis-
played as a bonus range on the
Interaction Unit.
The increase/decrease in the bonus range is
symbolized by the arrow to the left of the
bonus range, providing an indication of the
current driving style.
The intervals for resetting the bonus range
depend on the settings of the trip data.
Display in case of inefficient driving
style
An arrow appears on the Interaction
Unit when the vehicle is driven be-
yond its efficient range.
For instance, this is displayed in the follow-
ing situations:
– Excessive acceleration.
– Excessive speed.
In addition, information on the reason for
the delay can be displayed.
