How to Use the Verano Start-Stop System?
2 Answers
Press the start-stop function button on the center console to enable or disable the automatic start-stop system. Below is an introduction to the Verano: 1. Vehicle Design: The Buick Verano is built based on Buick's latest family design language, featuring a winged chrome grille, LED automatic sensing headlights, LED tail lights, 17-inch ten-spoke two-tone aluminum alloy sport wheels, and a fastback roof. 2. Interior: The Buick Verano interior follows the 360-degree wraparound integrated design concept, with dynamic lines and a new cool black color scheme, creating a youthful and sporty atmosphere. It is equipped with a two-piece oversized panoramic sunroof, front multifunctional seats, a three-spoke sport multifunction steering wheel, dual barrel-style gauges with a 4.2-inch high-definition trip computer, and dual-zone independent automatic air conditioning.
I often drive the Verano, and the start-stop system is quite straightforward to use. After starting the engine, the system is enabled by default without manual activation. When stopping, pressing the brake pedal firmly will automatically shut off the engine to save fuel. The engine instantly restarts when the traffic light turns green or when you lightly press the accelerator while turning the steering wheel. Note that the system only works when the battery has sufficient charge, and it may not activate if the air conditioning is set too high in hot weather to prevent battery drain. It’s particularly fuel-efficient in city driving with frequent stops at traffic lights, with real-world tests showing a 10-15% reduction in fuel consumption. Personally, I’m not fond of the frequent vibrations from the system, so I often disable it using the start-stop button on the dashboard. Overall, the operation is simple but requires adjustments based on driving habits for a smoother journey.
