Does the ION button in a car consume more fuel?

Turning on the ION button in a car consumes more fuel. The ION button in a car refers to the negative ion air purification function, which can improve the air quality inside the vehicle. For vehicles equipped with a negative ion air purification function but without a physical ION button, this feature is generally integrated into the central control screen. By accessing the air conditioning interface on the screen, you can find the ION touch button. Below are the functions of the ION button in a car: 1. Maintaining air freshness: This function draws air from inside the car into the air conditioning system and releases it back, promoting air circulation and maintaining fresh air inside the vehicle. 2. Filtering fine particles: It converts fine particles that cannot be filtered by the air filter into larger particles that can be filtered, by adsorbing them with negative ions, thereby achieving a purification effect. 3. Adsorbing harmful substances: When this function is activated, the negative ion generator produces and releases a large number of negative ions. Harmful substances in the air, such as formaldehyde, easily adsorb onto these negative ions, causing them to form larger particles and settle. Eventually, these particles are filtered out by the air filter, effectively purifying the air inside the car.
