On my 2024, while the Battery level is above 55% full, whenever the B3 is engaged the ICE starts up and does not turn off on it's own.  This is not normal and I still believe that it is either a glitch of the software or the parameters incorectly programmed.Once the ICE starts "spinning" as some Members mention, once I accelerate, the ICE does Rev up even if I half a full or near full battery.  This is not correct when compared to the pre 2023 Models.Also, even when the motor "spins" and B5 is selected with the ICE running, the car does not slow down which indicates to me that at this point there is no Regenerative Braking going on at all.  Thus confirming my suspicion that that the ICE is starting up for no reason at all.</blockquote>
