SPORT Mode

Sport mode can be selected depending on driver preference or road conditions.

SPORT Mode

SPORT mode focuses on dynamic driving by automatically adjusting the steering wheel, engine, and transmission systems.

  • When the SPORT MODE button is pressed, the SPORT indicator (yellow or white) will illuminate.
  • If the system is activated:
    - While holding vehicle speed, it maintains gear and engine speed for a period of time even though the accelerator pedal is not depressed.
    - Upshifting is delayed.
  • If SPORT mode is on and the ignition is switched off, the system will return to NORMAL mode the next time. To turn on SPORT mode, press the SPORT MODE button again.

✽ NOTICE

Fuel efficiency may decrease in SPORT driving mode.
