ECO Assist Scoring
Monitors the fuel efficiency of your driving style in real time and converts results
into leaves, which are displayed in a series of five “plant” icons on the MID.
Once you start your vehicle, make sure the MID shows the Ecological Drive
Display on the display to view your Eco Assist score in real time.
As you drive, you earn leaves if you drive in a fuelefficient manner, or lose
them if you drive inefficiently.
When you turn the ignition off, your drive cycle and lifetime score are
displayed on the MID.

Each time you reach
a new stage, a Stage
