Method to turn off the eco mode in Beijing Hyundai Tucson: There are three buttons below the left side of the gear lever, the top left one is the switch, the right one is for auto start-stop, and the button labeled 'drivemode' at the top left corner in front of the armrest can switch between three modes. In terms of body dimensions, the Beijing Hyundai Tucson has a length of 4545 mm, a width of 1850 mm, a height of 1670 mm, and a wheelbase of 2670 mm. For the interior, the Beijing Hyundai Tucson features a modern popular light-toned interior design, with a metallic-finish center console that differs from the styles of the Elantra and Sonata. The center console includes an embedded 6-disc CD and cassette player, as well as automatic climate control.
I drive a Hyundai Tucson, and the ECO mode does save fuel, but sometimes the power feels too weak. Turning it off is actually quite simple. Just find the button labeled 'ECO' on the steering wheel or the center console and press it lightly. Once turned off, the green ECO light on the dashboard will go out, indicating it's deactivated. If you're unsure about the button's location, you can check the owner's manual—there’s usually an illustrated example in the driving controls section. After disabling ECO, the car responds more sharply, making acceleration and overtaking more enjoyable, though fuel consumption will be slightly higher. That’s why I prefer turning it off on highways or rural roads but keep it on in city traffic. Avoid frequent switching to prevent system instability. Also, remember to clean the button occasionally to prevent dust from affecting its responsiveness—it’s a small maintenance tip that helps.
