When Should You Turn On the Car ECON Mode?
1 Answers
If you are driving in congested traffic, it is recommended to turn on the ECON mode, but avoid using it on smooth roads. ECON is the car's energy-saving mode switch, and on some vehicles, the energy-saving mode is abbreviated as ECO. The name ECO is derived from the combination of Ecology, Conservation, and Optimization. From its inception, ECO has been designed with the fundamental principles of technology, environmental protection, and economy in mind. These three attributes have also become the enduring qualities pursued by the ECO intelligent engine family series. How ECO Works: ECO primarily operates by comprehensively analyzing and judging factors that affect fuel consumption during vehicle movement, such as automatic transmission gear position, engine speed, vehicle speed, braking, and transmission oil temperature. The ECU control unit calculates the optimal fuel quantity to supply the engine, effectively reducing fuel consumption compared to normal driving modes.
