Should I Drive in ECO Mode Normally?
1 Answers
In congested urban traffic conditions, activating ECO mode yields the best results, while it is unnecessary during high-speed driving. In stop-and-go city traffic where strong power output is not required and fuel consumption tends to be higher, enabling ECO mode not only reduces fuel consumption but also enhances driving comfort. Scenarios where ECO mode is unnecessary: There are a few situations where activating ECO mode is not required: 1. When the vehicle is traveling at high speeds (up to 100km/h), even if ECO is turned on, the onboard computer will prioritize maintaining speed, causing the ECO mode to deactivate automatically. 2. When high torque output is needed, such as when climbing hills, the engine control unit will prioritize delivering sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the ECO mode will deactivate automatically. Location of the ECO button: The ECO button is typically located on the left side of the vehicle. It is marked with the letters "ECO", and on some models, the button is green, making it easily identifiable.
