SEAT driving modes (SEAT Drive
Profile)*
Introduction
SEAT Drive Profile enables the driver to
choose between four profiles or modes,
Nor-
mal , Sport , Eco and Individual , that modify the
behaviour of various vehicle functions, pro-
viding different driving experiences.
In the FR and X-PERIENCE models equipped
with dynamic chassis control and Navi Sys-
tem Plus, the
Comfort profile is also availa-
ble.
In the Leon Cupra model the four profiles are
Comfort , Sport , Cupra and Individual .
The
Individual
profile can be configured ac-
cording to personal preferences. The other
profiles are fixed.
Description
Depending on the equipment fitted in the ve-
hicle, SEAT Drive Profile can operate on the
following functions:
Engine
Depending on the profile selected, the en-
gine responds more spontaneously or more
in harmony with the movements of the accel-
erator. Additionally, when
Eco
mode is selec-
ted, the Start-stop function is automatically
activated.
In vehicles with automatic transmission, the
gear change points are modified to position
them in lower or higher engine speed ranges.
Additionally, the
Eco
1)
mode activates the In-
ertia function, enabling consumption to be
further reduced.
In manual gearbox vehicles, Eco
1)
mode cau-
ses the gear change recommendation indica-
tions that appear on the instrument panel to
vary, facilitating more efficient driving.
Dynamic chassis control (DCC)
DCC continuously adapts the shock absorb-
ers to the condition of the road and current
driving conditions, according to the pre-set
programme.
In the event of a fault in the DCC, the follow-
ing message is displayed on the instrument
screen
Fault: damping setting
.

sumption.
