SPORT mode controls driving dynamics by automatically controlling the flywheel, engine and transmission.

  • When you select SPORT mode by pressing the DRIVE MODE button, the SPORT indicator (yellow) illuminates.
  • When the engine is restarted, NORMAL mode is applied by default. Therefore, if necessary, select SPORT mode again.
  • When SPORT mode is activated:
    - Engine speed (revolutions per minute) is maintained for a certain time after the accelerator pedal is released.
    - Upshifting is delayed during acceleration.
