Automatic drive program
Drive program E is characterised by the fol-
lowing:
R
comfort-oriented engine settings.
R
optimal fuel consumption resulting from
the automatic transmission shifting up
sooner.
R
the vehicle pulling away more gently in
forward and reverse gears, unless the
accelerator pedal is depressed fully.
R
increased sensitivity. This improves driving
stability on slippery road surfaces, for
example.
R
the automatic transmission shifting up
sooner. This results in the vehicle being
driven at lower engine speeds and the
wheels being less likely to spin.
Drive program S is characterised by the fol-
lowing:
R
sporty engine settings
R
the automatic transmission shifting up
later
R
as a result of the later automatic transmis-
sion shift points, the fuel consumption pos-
sibly being higher
