Active ECO operation
Active ECO helps improve fuel efficiency by controlling the engine and transaxle. Fuel-efficiency is determined by the driver's driving habits and road conditions.
When Active ECO is activated :
✽ NOTICE
Active ECO is designed on the assumption of light to mild throttle driving style to control engine and transaxle in order to optimize fuel economy. A person with an aggressive throttle driving style may find the engine performance in Active ECO on mode to be unsatisfactory, and thus may not realize any fuel economy gain. In such an aggressive driver style case, it would be better to keep Active ECO off for best fuel economy. For best results, it is recommended to compare the performance of both modes to determine which is more effective for your driving style.
Limitation of Active ECO operation
If the following conditions occur while Active ECO is operating, the effectiveness of the Active ECO may be limited even though the indicator is still on.
