Automatic Gearbox - CITROËN DS 5 Handbook

Automatic gearbox

Six speed automatic gearbox which offers a
choice between the comfort of fully automatic
operation, enhanced by sport and snow
programmes, and the pleasure of manual gear
changing.
Two driving modes are offered:
-
automatic operation for electronic
management of the gears by the gearbox,
with a sport programme for a more
dynamic style of driving and a snow
programme to improve driving when
traction is poor,
- manual operation for sequential changing
of the gears by the driver.
