Do any of you use Eco mode?

[me and my metro]

It's the exact opposite of "Tow/Haul" mode on our F-550s at work.
The eco light comes on when our 2015 Ram v6 pickups are driven nicely.
I am probably the only one at work that has even seen it! LOL

Econo mode is mostly achieved by driver behavior, not vehicle behavior.

If I set the cruise control, I don't want my speed fluctuating. It unnecessarily disrupts the drivers behind that might also be using cruise. If I cause a few of those following to brake, then I've undone what miniscule fuel savings I gained by allowing the car to slow.
