S (Sport)
Moving the gearshift lever to S (Sport):
• Provides additional grade (engine) braking and extends lower gear
operation to enhance performance for uphill climbs, hilly terrain or
mountainous areas. This will increase engine RPM during engine
braking.
• Provides additional lower gear operation through the automatic
transmission shift strategy which reacts to vehicle inputs (vehicle
acceleration, accelerator pedal, brake pedal and vehicle speed).
• Gears are selected more quickly and at higher engine speeds.
Note: The system will stay in S (Sport) until the gear shift lever is
moved into another gear for example P (park) or D (Drive).
SelectShift Automatic Transmission (if equipped)
Note: Your transmission must be in S (Sport) for SelectShift to operate
properly.
Your SelectShift automatic transmission gives you the ability to manually
change gears if you'd like. To use SelectShift, move the gearshift lever
into S (Sport). Now you can use the paddles on your steering wheel to
manually select gears.
Paddle Shifters (if equipped)
The paddle shifters allow you to shift gears quickly, without taking your
hands off the steering wheel. Temporary manual control is provided
when pulling the paddles with the gearshift in the D (Drive) position.
The system will determine when temporary manual control is no longer
desired and reverts back to automatic control. Extensive manual control
can be achieved by moving the shifter to the S (Sport) position. The
system will stay in manual control until the shifter is moved out of the
manual position.
