Turning off a Tesla, or any electric vehicle (EV), is notably different from turning off a traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) car. Teslas don’t have engines; they are powered by electric motors and a substantial battery pack. Thus, there's no "engine" to turn off in the conventional sense. However, you can power down or "turn off" your Tesla by using the touchscreen inside the car. On the main display, go to the ‘Vehicle’ settings, and you should find an option called ‘Power Off’ under the ‘Safety & Security’ menu. Pressing this will put the car into a sort of sleep mode. Another simple method is to exit the vehicle with the key fob (or your smartphone if it's set up as a key) and close all the doors. The car automatically powers down systems that don't need to stay active and goes into a low-power state. Remember, Teslas are designed to be ready-to-go whenever you are, so fully "turning off" the car is seldom necessary. The car manages its battery and systems to ensure longevity and readiness.

Engine braking is often achieved by shifting down in a manual transmission or using a special mode in an automatic transmission. Instead of solely relying on the brakes. this technique uses the natural resistance of the engine to slow down the vehicle. It is particularly useful when driving down long slopes as it helps prevent brake overheating and wear. Engine braking does not harm the engine; rather. it utilizes back pressure to decelerate. providing both control and longevity for the brakes. However. caution should be exercised when using this method in dense traffic or wet conditions as it may startle drivers behind you and potentially lead to rear-end collisions.
