toggle

読まずにはいられませんでした。NYTのBEHIND THE WHEELがBMWのスーパースポーツEVであるi8を採り上げています。
toggleは本来「ダッフルコートなどのボタン代わりの留め木」を指す言葉ですが，T字のようなその形から「つまみを上下して切り替える」スイッチがtoggle switchと呼ばれるようになりました（『プログレッシブ英和中辞典』小学館）。そしてその意味から転じて，動詞のtoggleには「（2つの状態間）を切り替える」（『スーパー・アンカー英和辞典』第4版，学研教育出版）という意味があります。（Koyamamoto）

Yes, Gawkers: Attention Must Be Paid
Review: 2015 BMW i8
BMW’s i8 plug-in hybrid may be as fast as a Corvette Stingray, but it made me late every time I drove it.
Fast getaways should be a given, considering the BMW’s jaw-dropping 3.8-second surge to 60 miles per hour. The problem is that the simple act of opening the i8’s “swan wing” doors brought gawkers running — that is, if they weren’t already snapping photos, as happened after midnight in Manhattan when I found tourists surrounding the parked i8.
…The i8’s front wheels are driven by a 129-horsepower electric motor and a 2-speed transmission that operate entirely behind the scenes. The rear wheels are served by a 228-horsepower turbocharged 1.5-liter 3-cylinder (adapted from the Mini Cooper) with integrated electric assist. Using paddles or a console lever, drivers operate a spectacularly quick 6-speed automatic transmission to manage a total of 357 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque.
I first toggled up the eDrive mode, which propels the i8 for up to 22 miles strictly on front-drive electricity, albeit at a Prius-like pace of 9.5 seconds to 60 m.p.h. and a top speed of 75 m.p.h.
