Adaptive mode allows the intelligence of the vehicle to automatically adjust throttle sensitivity, steering shifting and dampers. based on the current driving situation.


The transmission is connected to the navigation system, allowing it to apply that information to help you maneuver corners and shift more efficiently. Basically adaptive mode registers your driving behavior while considering the road ahead in order to automatically precondition the vehicle for the upcoming situation. It automatically and smoothly switches between the driving dynamics and drivetrain configuration of the Comfort, Sport and Eco Pro mode.

Essentially the adaptive mode offers the enjoyable and linear throttle response of the comfort mode, as well as the configuration of the Eco Pro Mode at all times. If certain situation arise which would require the sport configuration the adaptive mode swiftly reacts accordingly.
