I've only had my 2025 GT GT1 less than 2 weeks, and experimenting with drive modes. I thought / hoped the My Drive -Smart mode would be better for gas milage. but so far seems like just using Normal is better. Will using it for a long time give any better results? or should I use My Drive for the Sport+ setting? thanks in advance for any info.

My experience has been that my GT is getting better gas mileage as it breaks in. 2 weeks is too new to expect the best mileage.
yeah, that makes sense. thanks.

Smart mode will switch between eco, normal, and sport. Depending on how hard your hitting the gas. I have my drive set for normal powertrain and sport steering.
that's what i was under the impression would happen. - even though I don't have any manual option for eco in the Mydrive, it would be able to run that way. as GlacialWhiteGT said, under 200 miles is not enough break it in.
