What does the Eco Mode in the Kia Sportage do?

I recently purchased a Kia Sportage and noticed there is an Eco Mode button. Can you explain what this mode does and if it is beneficial to use?

The Eco Mode in the Kia Sportage adjusts the vehicle's transmission, engine performance, and air conditioning system to optimize fuel efficiency. It can be useful for city driving or during long trips.

Using Eco Mode can improve your gas mileage by up to 10%. It can also help reduce emissions and save you money on gas in the long run.

I personally recommend using Eco Mode for everyday driving. It may slightly affect the vehicle's performance, but the fuel savings make it worth it.
