ECO Assist analyses data for the vehicle's expec‐
ted route. This allows the system to optimally
adjust the driving style for the route ahead, use
minimal energy and recuperate.
ECO Assist is displayed on the
Assistance
menu(

Displayable previous events 1
The following events 1 can be detected and
displayed for the route section ahead:
R
Vehicle in front
R
Speed limit
R
Downhill and uphill gradients
R
Junctions and roundabouts
R
Bends
The segments of distance display 2 show the
distance to the event ahead as follows:
R
A few segments light up: the event ahead is
near.
R
Many segments light up: the event ahead is
further away.
If ECO Assist is active, "Foot off the accelerator"
symbol 3 will appear on the Assistance menu
on the multifunction display, on the head-up dis‐
play and next to the transmission position dis‐
play.
When the vehicle nears an event, ECO Assist will
calculate the optimal speed for minimal energy
consumption based on the distance and speed.
"Foot off the accelerator" recommendation 3
will appear on the multifunction display.
If you take your foot off the accelerator pedal in
good time, the remaining segments on the dis‐
play will successively turn green until the event
shown is reached. The drivetrain will be set for
minimal energy consumption. The vehicle will
recuperate autonomously and thus charge the
high-voltage battery.
% You can also manually increase or reduce
recuperation. However, ECO Assist is availa‐
ble only in the h à setting
(
