Driving Aids
Eco Mode

This system assists you in driving more efficiently by constantly monitoring characteristics of gear changing, anticipation of traffic conditions and speeds while driving.

The value of these characteristics is represented by petals shown in the display, with five petals being the most efficient.

The more efficiently you drive, the better the rating, and the better your vehicle's overall fuel economy.

Note: These efficiency values do not result in a defined fuel consumption figure. It might vary as it is not only related to these driving habits, but also influenced by many other factors such as short trips and cold starts.

Note: Frequent short trips, where the engine does not fully warm up, will also increase fuel consumption

The system is accessed using the information display control
