Engine
Depending on the pr ofil
e sel
ected, the engine
responds more spontaneously or more in har-
mony with the movements of the accelerator.
Additionally, when the Eco profile is selected,
the Start-Stop function is automatically acti-
vated.
In vehicles with automatic transmission, the
gear change points are modified to position
them in lower or higher engine speed ranges.
Additionally, the Eco profile activates the in-
ertia function, enabling consumption to be
further reduced.
In manual gearbox vehicles, the Eco profile
causes the gear change recommendation in-
dications that appear on the dash panel to
vary, facilitating more efficient driving.
Address
The power steering varies its driving modes
and adapts to the profile selected, thus offer-
ing the best behaviour for each situation.
Air conditioning
In vehicles with Climatronic, this can operate
in eco mode, especially restricting fuel con-
sumption. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
The acceleration and br
aking gradient of the
adaptive cruise control varies according to
the active driving profile
