Default Re: CVT - Mountain driving

How do you know your RPM? Does yours have a tach?

I didn't know that "B" increased the regen. The manual implies that it doesn't.
More than enough juice to fully-charge the battery on these hills even on "D",
and I hardly ever need A/C.

Does going into and out of "B" actually reduce fuel consumption? I figured it didn't
burn much on a downhill in any case.
