How does sailing work on the Toyota Yaris Hybrid?

Model: Toyota Yaris MK 4 - Years 2020-2026

In this video we discover how the sailing technique works, which is the way to drive a hybrid car saving as much battery and fuel as possible. We find our cruising speed, and when we reach it, we take our foot off the accelerator and at this point the car proceeds in electric mode; the maximum battery recharge intensity occurs during braking, while the combustion engine only turns on when power is needed. Sailing can also be done at high speeds, exceeding 100 km/h, and involves always keeping an eye on the green flow on the screen, avoiding sudden braking, which would then require the intervention of the combustion engine to restart.
