Using the Drive Selector



With the vehicle in P Park or N Neutral, move the right steering column lever up or down to select Reverse or Drive. The center Glass Cockpit Panel shows the current selection. When in Park, you must also press the brake pedal before selecting D Drive or R Reverse.

Note: If you try to make a selection that is prohibited due to the current vehicle speed, a chime will sound and a message will display on the Glass Cockpit Panel.

R (Reverse)

Push the lever up and release to select R. Reverse can only be selected when the vehicle is stationary or if its forward speed is less than 5 mph (8 km/h).

N (Neutral)

This allows the vehicle to roll freely unless the brakes are applied.

To shift into Neutral while in Park, push the Drive Selector up or down to a halfway point of resistance, and hold for one second. Release once the car shifts to Neutral.

To shift into Neutral while in either Drive or Reverse, push the Drive Selector in the opposite direction of the currently selected gear. Hold at the halfway resistance delimit for one second, and release once the car shifts to Neutral.

Note: If the vehicle’s electrical system is unresponsive, the operator will need to connect a 12v jumpstart battery to the jump-start terminal to shift to Neutral.

D (Drive)

Push the lever down and release to select D. You can only select Drive when the vehicle is stationary or its speed is less than 5 mph (8 km/h) in reverse.

P (Park)

When P is selected, the parking brake will automatically apply. With the vehicle stationary, press the end of the gear selector to select Park.

Note: P is automatically engaged when you connect a charging cable to the charging port. This is to prevent the vehicle from moving while still connected.
Note: If the vehicle is in D or R, P will automatically be selected if you open the driver’s door and get up from the driver’s seat.
Warning: It is the responsibility of the driver to always ensure that the vehicle is in Park before exiting. Never rely on the vehicle to automatically shift into Park.

Vehicle Creep

Warning: Do not rely on Creep to keep your vehicle stationary on a hill. Always apply the brake to remain stopped when on a hill to avoid collisions or property damage.

Creep is enabled or disabled via the Pilot Panel. Select >  Vehicle > Drive Settings to enable/disable Creep.

Releasing the brake pedal and tapping the accelerator when Creep is on will cause the vehicle to slowly move forward in D (Drive), or backward in R (Reverse). It may be necessary to apply the accelerator on steeper slopes or hills to move the vehicle forward.

When Creep is off, the vehicle will either be in a free-rolling state or hold stationary, depending on the selected drive settings.
