Various driving situations which you may encounter in SMART mode The driving mode automatically changes to ECO mode after a certain period of time when you gently depress the accelerator pedal (Your driving is categorized to be mild). The driving mode automatically changes from SMART ECO mode to SMART NORMAL mode after a certain period of time when you sharply or repetitively depress the accelerator pedal. The driving mode automatically changes to SMART NORMAL mode with the same driving patterns when the vehicle starts to drive on an upward slope of a certain angle.

The driving mode automatically returns to SMART ECO mode when the vehicle enters a leveled road. The driving mode automatically changes to SMART SPORT when you abruptly accelerate the vehicle or repetitively operate the steering wheel (Your driving is categorized to be sporty). In this mode, your vehicle drives in a lower gear for faster accelerating/decelerating and increased engine brake performance.

You may still sense the engine brake performance, even when you release the accelerator pedal in SMART SPORT mode. It is because your vehicle remains in a lower gear over a certain period of time.
