Hypermilling tips when you run using autocruise;
Try to reduce blue zone/maintain green zone at incline by inching down on the set speed using Decel/SET button. The car will obviously slows down getting up the hill, depending on the degree of incline.
When the car going downhill, press Accel/RES button to extend the green zone and speed up the car. By then will got enough momentum for the next slope.
More green zone, better mileage. In the meantime your legs are still rest free.
Quite exciting. Like playing game using joystick. Have a try.
but one question.. is it when we reach 4000km then suddenly the leaf becomes double? I tried to maintain the green bar every time i drive even though it is impossible in town area and still cannot manage to get more leaf. Until it reach 4000km then the leaf grows.Try to reduce blue zone/maintain green zone at incline by inching down on the set speed using Decel/SET button.

Maybe i am right and maybe also i am wrong. however, comments from all of you are much appreciated.
p/s: just for sharing : I reset the km/l every time i drive (for past one month for testing my theory) and it gives different reading. most of the time is getting higher due to different journey and different style of handling. Anyway i also don't believe the article that they can clocked 25.8 km/l unless they reset the km/l and start the journey in highway without need to stop frequently.
