Does the eco mode of new energy vehicles save power?
1 Answers
New energy vehicles save power in eco mode. When the ECO mode is activated, some of the vehicle's dynamic performance will decrease, such as the acceleration performance becoming worse. ECO is the acronym for the three English words Ecology, Conservation, and Optimization. It is an energy-saving mode for vehicles. Activating this mode can achieve the effect of saving energy. The principle of ECO: ECO mainly makes comprehensive judgments and analyses on conditions that affect fuel consumption during vehicle movement, such as automatic transmission gear, engine speed, vehicle speed, braking, and transmission oil temperature. The ECU control unit calculates the optimal amount of fuel to provide to the engine for work, effectively reducing fuel consumption compared to normal driving mode. Simply put, it controls the engine speed with reasonable gears to reduce unnecessary fuel consumption.
