TOUR mode
The settings of the systems are
adapted to a comfort driving style:
● Damping of shock absorbers
reacts more softly.
● Accelerator pedal reacts with
standard settings.
● Steering support is in standard
mode.
● Shift points of automatic
transmission occur in a comfort
mode.
● Illumination of main instruments
is white.
NORMAL mode
All settings of the systems are
adapted to standard values.
Drive mode control
Within each manually selected driving
mode SPORT, TOUR or NORMAL,
the Drive Mode Control detects and
analyses continuously the real driving
characteristic, responses by the
driver, and the active dynamic state of
the vehicle. If necessary, the control
unit of Drive Mode Control
automatically changes the settings
within the selected driving mode or,
when recognising greater variations,
the driving mode is changed for the
length of variation.
If, for example, NORMAL mode is
selected and Drive Mode Control
detects a sporty driving behaviour,
Drive Mode Control changes several
settings of the NORMAL mode into
sporty settings. The Drive Mode
Control changes to SPORT mode in
case of very sporty driving behaviour.
If, for another example, TOUR mode
is selected and whilst driving on a
winding road a sudden hard brake is
necessary, Drive Mode Control will
detect the dynamic vehicle condition
and changes the settings for
suspension to SPORT mode to
increase vehicle stability.
When the driving characteristic or the
dynamic vehicle state returns to the
former state, Drive Mode Control will
change the settings to the
preselected driving mode.
Personalised settings in the
SPORT mode
The driver can select the functions of
the SPORT mode when SPORT is
pressed. These settings can be
changed in the Settings menu in the
Info-Display. Vehicle personalisation
