March 23 2022,
Volvo vehicles offer a wide range of technologies that make it easier to improve fuel economy and lower the fuel consumption of your vehicle. Of course, Volvo Recharge models offer a range of hybrid and electric powertrains that cut down on fuel consumption, but every 2022 Volvo vehicle is designed to improve efficiency through a variety of functions that come included with a vehicle.
The perfect example of this is the impressive Volvo Eco Drive mode. When you select the Volvo Eco Drive mode, using either the rotary dial near the gearbox or within the infotainment system, what you are doing is enabling a variety of parameters to be adjusted in order to ensure optimal fuel economy. The Volvo Eco Drive mode is an impressive function that makes it easy to save fuel when you are out on the road.
The work of driving in a more linear fashion is done for you when Volvo Eco Drive mode is selected. For example, Volvo Eco Drive mode adjust the transmission shift points and the engine response to preserve as much fuel as possible without sacrificing performance. One of the best ways to improve fuel economy is to drive in a linear fashion and avoid flooring the accelerator. When you select Eco Drive mode, that is essentially what you are doing but it is the system that is doing it for you.
Volvo Eco Drive mode can also lower the suspension to improve aerodynamics, it can adjust the climate controls for the most optimal settings, and it enables Volvo Coast mode which is a function that can be used when coasting to disengage the automatic gearbox and allow the kinetic energy to propel the vehicle as opposed to the engine.
In simple terms, if you want to improve the fuel economy of your Volvo vehicle, simply select Eco Drive mode and continue on your way. Give us a call today to learn more and try the system for yourself.
