I live in a mountainous area so often need engine braking on steep downhills in my '25 off-road hybrid. Configuring via Tow/Haul mode or choosing a max gear in s+/-, the instantaneous mpg meter drops significantly from 60 (max) down to something like 30 or maybe 40. This indicates to me that unwanted power is being added. I'd think going downhill it should stay pegged at 60. Does anyone know what's going on here?
