Electronic Stability Control in sport
mode
7
The stability system (ESC ) is always acti-
vated – it cannot be switched off. However,
the driver can select ESC Sport Mode
which allows for a more active driving experi-
ence.
With the ESC Sport Mode subfunction
selected, intervention from the system is
reduced and the car is allowed to skid more
and greater control than normal is thus trans-
ferred to the driver.
When ESC Sport Mode is selected, the func-
tion can be considered as deactivated, despite
the function continuing to help the driver in
many cases.
NOTE
With ESC Sport Mode selected, Trailer
Stability Assist (TSA 8 ) is deactivated.
ESC Sport Mode also provides more traction
even if the car has become bogged down or is
driving on a loose surface, such as in sand or
deep snow.
