AdvanceTrac
௡ Sport Mode
The AdvanceTrac
௡ system provides an available Sport Mode on some
models. This can be selected utilizing the AdvanceTrac off control switch
as shown in the table above.
Sport mode is not intended for use on public roadways as this mode
provides less AdvanceTrac
௡ system intervention than when the default
ESC and Traction Control systems are on. Sport mode will allow more
spirited driving while the AdvanceTrac
௡ system is still enabled.
