Steering
In Sport mode, power steerin~ is r~duced and the
effort required to stee r the vehicle mcreases. The
vehicle's driving response becomes more agile.
Powertrain (engine and gearbox)
The engine and gearbox will give either a more dy­
namic or more balanced response to the move­
ment of the accelerato r, depending on th e selec ted
driving mode . In vehicles with an automatic gear­
box, the gear shift po ints and the coasting mode
will also change . An active cruise contro l sys tem
(CCS) can affec t the acceleration response.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
When the ACC is active, accele ratio n and deceler­
ation of the vehicle becomes more ecological or
sporty.
Dynamic bend lighting and automatic main
beam assist
The dynamic bend lighting and the automatic main
beam assist will give either a more dynamic or
more balanced respo nse to the current driving sit­
uation, depe nding on the selected driving m ode.
