Comfort – Provides a more relaxed driving experience, maximizing
comfort. Steering effort is decreased and suspension movement is more
fluid. Comfort mode is ideal when enhanced traveling comfort is desired.
•Normal – Delivers a balanced combination of comfortable, controlled
ride and confident handling. This mode provides an engaging drive
experience and a direct connection to the road without sacrificing any
of the composure demanded from a luxury vehicle.
•Sport – Provides a sportier driving experience. Suspension stiffens,
with an emphasis on handling and control. The engine responds more
directly to your inputs and takes on a more powerful tone. Sport mode
is intended to be used during more spirited driving.
