Drive Selection (Automatic Transaxle)
Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle's drive mode. When the sport mode is
selected, vehicle's response against accelerator operation is enhanced. This provides
additional quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make maneuvers such as lane
changes, merging onto freeways, or passing other vehicles.
CAUTION
Do not use the sport mode when driving on slippery roads such as wet or snow-
covered roads. It may cause tire slipping.
NOTE
l
When the sport mode is selected, driving at higher engine speeds increases and it may increase
fuel consumption. Mazda recommends to cancel the sport mode on normal driving.
l
Drive mode cannot be switched in the following conditions:
l
ABS/TCS/DSC is operating
l
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system/cruise control is operating.
l
Steering wheel is being operated abruptly

sport mode is selected, the vehicle may
perform shift-down or slightly accelerate.
