There are three Eco stages, with five
plants per stage. As you accumulate
a specified number of leaves, you
advance from one stage to the next.
The plant grows leaves from left to
right, or loses them from right to left.
A trophy icon appears once you have
reached the maximum third stage
score.

The scoring system for points is
based on:
Stages/Displays and Icons Definition
CONTINUED
A total of two leaves can be put on each plant icon.
A total of four leaves can be added to each plant icon.
A circular shaped icon, which represents a blossom, can be
added on top of each plant icon with four leaves.
An icon appears once you have reached the maximum score for
each stage and are moving up to the next stage. These icons
appear briefly when the ignition switch is turned off.
Once the 3rd stage maximum score is reached, the system
continues to monitor your driving. If you maintain a fuel
efficient driving style, your score remains at the highest stage.
If you drive less efficiently, points will be deducted and you
may drop (stage down) to the previous stage.
Real time scores must accumulate over time to result in a stage change. In order to build lifetime
points and advance to the next stage, you need to keep your efficient driving style every time you
make a trip. It can take several months to move from one stage to the next. Individual results will
vary.
