Sport mode for electronic stability
control
Electronic stability control (Electronic Stability
Control — ESC) helps the driver to avoid skid-
ding and improves the car’s traction.
The ESC system is always activated — it cannot
be switched off. However, the driver can select
Sport mode, which allows for a more active driv-
ing experience.
In Sport mode the ESC system detects whether
the accelerator pedal, steering wheel movements
and cornering are more active than in normal
driving and then allows a certain degree of con-
trolled skidding with the rear section before ESC
intervenes and stabilises the car.
For example, if the driver stops a controlled skid
by releasing the accelerator pedal, the ESC sys-
tem intervenes and stabilises the car.
Sport mode also provides maximum traction if the
car has become bogged down or is driving on a
loose surface, such as sand or deep snow.
Select/deselect Sport mode
The Sport mode is activated/
deactivated in the centre dis-
play's function view.
–
Tap on the ESC Sport Mode button in
function view.
> Sport mode is activated/deactivated, a
green/grey indicator is displayed in the
button.
The driver display indicates Sport mode
by displaying this symbol with a con-
stant glow until the function is deacti-
vated or the engine is switched off. The
next time the engine is started, the ESC system
is back in its normal mode again.
Limitations for Sport mode
The
ESC Sport Mode
function cannot be
selected when one of the functions from speed
limiter, cruise control or adaptive cruise control is
activated.
