CONTROL DESCRIPTION
- The INFINITI drive mode selector switches a vehicle mode with the flick of a switch (Drive mode select switch) mounted on upper part of the center console and changes the control characteristics of the powertrain and chassis.
- The vehicle characteristics are controlled from the STANDARD mode ("•" position of the drive mode select switch) to any mode listed below: SPORT: Changing the control characteristics of the transmission and active trace control function enables the use of high engine performance regions to obtain a light and crisp feel of the steering wheel. ECO: Fuel economy is enhanced by changing the control characteristics of the engine transmission and using an ECO pedal. SNOW: Changing the engine characteristics enables the obtainment of higher driving performance on roads with low coefficient of friction.
