2021 300h start/stop button
Does anyone know if the car has one? I want to turn off the start/stop feature but I can't find the button. I've looked everywhere.
I searched online and some owners and AI assistants say to turn press the A-off button. But I can't flipping find it. LOL!
I'd appreciate any feedback.

Hybrids such as your 300h do start and stop the Internal Combustion engine. When you begin to accelerate, the Electric Motor moves the car
until the IC engine starts. The transition is seamless and the engine will start and stop a dozen times while you drive.
Non-Hybrid cars have adopted the Start/Stop idea to slightly improve MPG ratings but since they do not have the electric motor to
roll away from a stop, they tend to act roughly, and many folks don't like the coarseness. Since the smooth action of the Toyota
Synergy Drive as used in our Lexus Hybrids is a fundamental element of how we get such great MPG's, it is not defeatable and
does not have or need a button.
