The Drive Mode "ECO" is active, you Act to twist the **** and the car Acts differently,
HVAC uses less power, cruise is less aggressive, throttle is less responsive.
All to provide up to 7% better mileage. Will remain engaged when the car is restarted.
The "ECO" (and graphic is some models) is Passive. Does not change any of the cars
functions but is supposed to change you, the driver. Inclusion of the monitor lets the
manufacturer test for the EPA/CAFE ratings and certify that if the system is active and
being followed the better results are published. Your mileage may vary!
