the vehicle’s driving characteristics to suit prevailing
conditions. 1.
Winter mode. Use in slippery road conditions. Selects
2nd gear for driving away, moderates engine response
and modifies gear change strategy to make sure
maximum possible traction is achieved.

experience. If transmission S is now used with paddle
gear selection, there is no automatic gear change, even if
the rev limit is reached.
