xhybrdx Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 My wife drove my GS450 and inadvertently placed the PWR/Hybrid/Snow switch in PWR. I have used the snow position before but never PWR (It seems to have more than enough power). So, I have been pleasantly surprised to find an increase in both performance AND gas mileage (better than .5 mile per gallon or so). Anyone else use this setting and get similar results?

If you drive aggressively anyway then yes, the PWR mode will yeild improved FE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xhybrdx Posted May 6, 2008 Author Share Posted May 6, 2008 Thanks! Though I really don't drive aggressively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOMEONE ELSE'S GOT MY NAME Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Thanks! Though I really don't drive aggressively. Aggressive driving is relative to how mild others drive. If you're beating the EPA's stated MPG rating, you're driving mild. If you're not hitting the EPA's MPG rating ... well ... you get the picture.
