Aside from legendary performance and luxurious style, a new Mercedes-Benz vehicle offers drivers some of the most innovative technology available on the market today! But what good are all of these extra features if you don’t know how they work, or even what they do? Let’s take a closer look at one of our favorite features: ECO Start/Stop. With ECO Start/Stop Technology from Mercedes-Benz, you’ll be able to save fuel and reduce emissions without altering anything about your driving. Keep reading to watch a video from Mercedes-Benz about ECO Start/Stop technology and read about how you can use ECO Start/Stop in your Mercedes-Benz vehicle!
What is Mercedes-Benz ECO Start/Stop Technology?
ECO Start/Stop Technology from Mercedes-Benz works to save fuel and reduce emissions by shutting off your engine when you don’t need it. Pretty novel concept, eh? ECO Start/Stop censors are activated when your car is brought to a stop. When you take your foot off the gas, your engine starts up seamlessly.
How Do I Use Mercedes-Benz ECO Start/Stop Technology?
When you bring your Mercedes-Benz vehicle to a stop, ECO Start/Stop will evaluate a set of conditions including engine temperature, battery charge level and other driving conditions to ensure it can pause your vehicle’s engine automatically. A small green icon near your speedometer will alert you when ECO Start/Stop is activated. Your Mercedes-Benz vehicle will have a button to control ECO Start/Stop allowing you to turn the system on or off. If your vehicle’s engine is paused using ECO Start/Stop, you simply have to accelerate your engine to automatically and seamlessly restart. Amazingly, you won’t experience any delay when “starting” your engine.
That’s it! There’s nothing you have to do differently while driving beside making sure ECO Start/Stop is powered on. Enjoy saving money at the pump and saving the environment from harmful emissions!
