This system interacts with the "Alfa DNA" system (see paragraph "Alfa
DNA").
The "Alfa DNA" system lever allows you to choose three different
SAFETY
driving settings depending on the route type and on the road surface:
❒ d = Dynamic (sports driving mode);
❒ n = Natural (mode for driving in normal conditions);
❒ a = All Weather (mode for driving in poor grip conditions, such as
STARTING AND
rain and snow).
DRIVING
In "Natural" and "All Weather" operating mode, the active shock
absorbers adjust the car suspension to suit the route type and
the driving stresses, thus considerably improving driving comfort in
particular on rough terrain.

The "Dynamic" operating mode produces a sports driving setting
characterised by more responsive acceleration and greater effort on
the steering wheel to give a sporty feeling. The shock absorber
damping action is also adjusted and divided, to guarantee higher
precision and reactivity of the car, while maintaining a good comfort
level.
The car is more precise when entering bends and quicker in changing
direction.
