The owners manual really does not state the purpose of ECO mode other than how to turn the indicator light on or off. I have seen a few references in Sonata reviews that the transmission shift points are changed to a more agressive upshift mode. An owner here in a recent thread mentioned the sensation of more throttle pedal pressure. Playing around myself, I seem to notice that the steering power assist seems to reduce a bit more quickly as speed increases.
Does anyone have any more detailed information on ECO mode or is this just a psychological thing for us to drive more conservatively?
