What does this mean?

In Eco pro mode, sometimes this pops up. What does it mean? What is it asking me to do??

Reduce speed to 57mph for most economical driving.
I have a solution for this, keep your car in Sport mode.

Why 57mph? Surely you're not taking that from the old MPG ratings that were done at circa this speed?

I figure it means just slow down for better economy, something you don't need a car to tell you really. Faster = More fuel used.

New digital dash - it's on the new M Sport Editions. Think it's called the Multifunction Display.

it has happened to me before... it only happens when you accelerate hard in Eco Mode.
its asking you to accelerate slow to save gas.... when in Eco MOde the engine feels a little down tuned... so its normal for someone to step on the gas when getting off a stop sign or after a red light... try it next time you drive in Eco Mode .... it will only happens when u step on the gas pedal hard...

Do you mind I ask you how you get that km/h digital speedo on your digital dash. Was it through coding?
