Drive programs
General notes
You can choose between various drive programs
for the automatic transmission with the
DYNAMIC SELECT switch. Engine management
and the gearshifting characteristics of the auto-
matic transmission change depending on which
drive program is selected. As a result, either a
sportier, a more comfort-oriented or an eco-
nomical driving style is supported, depending on
what the driver wishes. Selecting drive program
M also deactivates automatic gearshifting,
requiring that you change gear manually.
After the engine is started, the automatic trans-
mission automatically switches to drive pro-
gram C (Comfort) for a comfortable and eco-
nomical driving style.
