And accelerating faster makes your average speed for the same trip higher and therefore aero drag will be higher. Yes, time will be less but time is linear whereas aero drag goes up with the square of the velocity.

If this was true ECO Mode would be full or off rather than the sluggish feeling compared to regular Drive.UkrainianKozak said:Why is it that everyone thinks that accelerating fast is using more energy?
as long as you are not burning rubber, if you accelerate slow or fast, to reach the SAME SPEED, it should take the same amount of energy, actually accelerating fast SAVES energy as you are getting to your destination faster and lose less "parasitic energy" (AC/NAV, other electronics)

I sincerely hope you do not break your car. If your brake pedal breaks you could get in an accident. :? :shock:UkrainianKozak said:How about if you break slower!
