Green Econ Button in New Car

[sleaguepunter]

I continue to cc66 at car showrooms, notice many new car models dashboard has a green econ button on it.

what the purpose of the button?

what will the car do after pressing the button?

I ask salesman, all just say engine will run on green mode? then sat in my boss mercs, the car off aircon upon stopping at traffic light. is that a mercs feature or all car will do the same after engaging green mode?

I think it is just a gimmick to keep drivers from moving towards hybrids.

Best is press liao engine jam. Walking is the most green option.

After you press that button, the car starts to run on water.

Now cars electronically controlled. Press green button, many things can happen depending on manufacturers. Some cars engine will stop at traffic lights. That is OK in northern hemisphere, but not suitable in south east Asia where its hot and humid.

Singapore does not have an inkling of what green is. Industrialized countries are already gearing up for electric car, hydrogen fuel cell cars, and Peesai still makes a big deal out of F-1, which she proudly boasts as the ONLY night race for the series! Damn it, if the cars are driven at night, they should come with headlamps! Green my foot!

Cheers!
