All-wheel drive
*
All-wheel drive (AWD
7
) means that the car is
driving all four wheels at the same time, which
improves traction.
To achieve the best possible traction, the motive
force is distributed automatically to the wheels
with the best grip. The system continuously cal-
culates the need for torque to the rear wheels,
and can immediately redistribute up to half of the
motor's torque to the rear wheels.
All-wheel drive also has a stabilising effect at
higher speeds. Under normal driving conditions,
the majority of power is transmitted to the front
wheels. When stationary, the all-wheel drive is
always engaged in preparation for maximum trac-
tion during acceleration.
All-wheel drive characteristics vary depending on
the selected drive mode.

Selectable drive modes
Comfort
•
This is the car's normal mode.
When the car starts, it is in Comfort mode and
the start/stop function is activated. These set-
tings mean that the car feels comfortable, the
steering is light, the shock absorption is soft and
body's movement is smooth.
This drive mode is the certification mode for car-
bon dioxide emissions.
Eco
•
Adapt the car for more energy-efficient and
environmentally-conscious driving with the
Eco mode.
The drive mode means, for example, that the
Start/Stop function is activated and the output of
certain climate settings is reduced.
When driving in Eco mode, the driver display
shows an eco-meter that indicates in real time
how economical your driving is.
