The correct way to use the Nissan Sylphy's ECO mode is to press its button. The ECO switch is located below the steering wheel on the driver's side, where you can see the green ECO button. During daily driving, you can activate the ECO mode. However, it is unnecessary to enable ECO mode when driving over 120 km/h, during idling, in manual mode, or when climbing hills, as this would not reflect the fuel-saving characteristics of ECO mode and could affect the vehicle's power performance. The Nissan Sylphy has body dimensions of 4631mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1503mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. The vehicle is equipped with 7 NISSAN i-SAFETY intelligent active safety systems and 3 major driving assistance technologies.
I particularly enjoy using the ECO mode when driving my Nissan Sylphy. It's just a green button—press it to activate, and it helps save a lot on fuel costs. The operation is quite simple: after starting the car, press the 'ECO' button near the dashboard, and the light turning on indicates it's active. While driving, maintain a steady pace, avoid sudden acceleration, and try to drive at a constant speed, especially in urban areas with frequent traffic lights. The mode automatically adjusts engine output to reduce fuel consumption. It works wonders in heavy traffic or during long commutes, potentially saving around 10% on fuel. However, I turn it off when climbing steep hills or needing quick acceleration to avoid power shortages. Pairing it with automatic air conditioning enhances efficiency—set the temperature and avoid frequent adjustments, as the airflow adapts automatically. Over time, getting used to this smooth driving style leads to noticeably lower fuel consumption. During regular maintenance, always check if the mode is functioning properly to avoid regrets later.
