Idle Stop

Helps maximize fuel efficiency in stop-and-go traffic by automatically turning the engine off when stopped in traffic, restarting it when needed – smoothly and seamlessly.

  • After a stop, pressing the throttle automatically restarts the engine and the vehicle accelerates.
  • System upgrades provide faster response and operational smoothness for a more natural, seamless feel.
  • Active Control Engine Mounts (ACM) help smooth the restart, so it’s practically unnoticed by occupants.
  • The air-conditioning system’s cold-storage evaporator helps maintain cabin temperature when stopped, even in warm weather.
