Selective Ride Control; Cruise Control - Buick 2017 LaCrosse Owner's Manual

Selective Ride Control

The vehicle may have Selective
Ride Control. The SPORT button is
on the center stack.
Selective Ride Control adapts to the
preference of the driver within one
of two driving modes:
TOUR : Default mode used for
normal and long-distance highway
driving. This setting provides a
smooth, soft ride.
SPORT : Use where road conditions
or personal preference demand
more control. This setting provides
responsive, controlled steering and
handling to road conditions through
increased steering effort and
suspension tuning. Press and
release SPORT and the light on the
button comes on. Press the button
again and the system returns to the
Tour Mode.
The setting can be changed at any
time. Based on road conditions,
steering wheel angle, and vehicle
speed, the system automatically
adjusts to provide the best handling
while providing a smooth ride. The
Tour and Sport Modes will feel
similar on a smooth road.
Selective Ride Control automatically
comes on in the Tour Mode when
the vehicle is started. When the
Sport Mode is turned off, the system
returns to the Tour Mode.
