Toyota Yaris: When Driving / Drive Selection
Drive Selection (Automatic Transaxle)
Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle’s drive mode.
When the sport mode is selected, vehicle’s response against
accelerator operation is enhanced. This provides additional
quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make maneuvers such as lane
changes, merging onto free ways, or passing
other vehicles.
- When the sport mode is selected, driving at higher engine speeds
increases
and it may increase fuel consumption. Toyota recommends that you cancel
the sport mode on normal driving.
- Drive mode cannot be switched in the following conditions:
- ABS/TCS/DSC is operating
- Cruise control is operating.
- Steering wheel is being operated abruptly
WARNING
Do not use the sport mode when driving on slippery roads such as wet or
snow-covered roads. It may cause tire slipping.
Because the average fuel economy indication on the instrument cluster display
is linked with the “Average Fuel Economy History” (Current) indication on the
center display, when one is reset the other is also reset...
Press the drive selection switch to
the
side (forward) to select
the sport ̶ mode.
Pull the drive selection switch to
the side (backward) to cancel
the sport mode...
