cruise mode
Automatic speed maintenance
Cruise mode is a state of operating on autopilot—maintaining steady progress without active effort or adjustment.
From cruise control in vehicles, the term extends to any situation where someone settles into an easy, sustainable rhythm: Once the project launched, the team went into cruise mode.
It can suggest comfortable efficiency or, less favorably, coasting without full engagement.
