What does the ECO button do in a Kia Sportage?

I noticed there's an ECO button in my Kia Sportage and I'm not sure what it does. Can you provide some information on its function and if it's worth using?

The ECO button is designed to improve fuel efficiency by adjusting the vehicle's transmission and engine to operate at lower speeds and reduce overall energy consumption. Using the ECO button can also lead to a smoother and quieter driving experience. It can be particularly useful in city driving.

However, it may also impact the vehicle's performance and acceleration, so if you prefer a sportier driving style, it may be best to leave the ECO button off. This feature is ultimately up to personal preference, so I would recommend experimenting with it to see if it suits your driving needs.

One thing to keep in mind is that using the ECO button does not necessarily guarantee better fuel efficiency. It works best in situations where the vehicle is consistently driving at low speeds, such as in city traffic. If you primarily drive on the highway, the ECO button may not have as much of an impact.
