conditioning system.
Different driving profiles can be selected depending on the vehicle equipment level. The effect on
the vehicle setup in the individual driving profiles varies according to the vehicle equipment.
The Comfort driving profile is available only for vehicles with adaptive chassis control (DCC).

onroad driving profiles, while vehicles with all-wheel drive have additional offroad driving profiles
