eco mode just changes the shift points... which is at the expense of acceleration..
It's not the right tool for the job.

If you don't have passengers with you, you aren't pulling a trailer, or have the interior loaded with cargo. You have the wrong tool for the job.

I know this because the vehicle drives much differently when you fill it with people and cargo. It would never hold such a low gear.
