Automatic Transmission

~1min read

The five-speed automatic gearbox offers a choice between the comfort of full automatic operation, enhanced by Sport and Snow programmes, and manual gear changing.

You can therefore choose between two modes:

  • automatic mode, for electronic gear management, with Sport programme to increase driving dynamics, or Snow programme to improve handling when grip is insufficient,
  • manual mode, to allow the driver to change gears sequentially.
