While pulse and glide, is it better in Eco mode or normal mode with Prius c? Eco mode will take more time to pulse, it may lower mpg? Nexus 7 ?
it makes no never mind, personal preference, whatever works best for you. you will get people on both sides. i stay in eco.
ECO shouldn't bring anything to Pulse & Glide that it doesn't bring to regular driving. While ECO ought to be slightly better for both, it doesn't work for everyone. The difference isn't enough to override differences in personal preference and style, so use whatever works best for YOU. I leave my car in ECO fulltime.
ECO mode sucks. Make the C feel like a bicycle. I think that why the guy from Consumer Report gave C a bad review. I think he was busy messing with ECO mode. I used to leave it on all the time, but now I don't use it at all. It does save some gas when oustside temp below 30F. I am not expert in Pulse and glide. Since, I got alot traffic here, so I am just started to do semi pulse and glide. It is more like strong Pulse (pwer mode) then low EV. Get really good MPG without abuse the battery. Fuzzy1, what is your average mpg? Just curious in what you get in full ECO mode.
ECO doesnt work well for me. i need more response from the gas pedal. and I prefer ther air con fan to be on much higher. turning the screen off also makes for less distractions while driving. (please Like if you agree)
check this pulse and glide I just made with a warmed up C. sorry about quality, distance was .5 miles and it was basically one pulse and a glide on a flat surface damn I love this car sometimes.
