This mode is recommended for long-distance driving, or when driving in slippery conditions. The
indicator light in the button will be off when this mode is selected.
If Comfort mode was selected when the engine was switched off, this mode will still be active when the
engine is restarted.
Sport
In this mode, shock absorption is stiffer to reduce the vehicle's body sway during cornering and to
provide more immediate steering response. The indicator light in the button will come on to indicate that
Sport mode has been selected.
If this setting was selected when the engine was switched off, Sport mode will still be active when the
engine is restarted.
Advanced sport (V70 R only)

is more direct, and body sway in curves or when cornering is sharply reduced.
If Advanced sport mode was selected when the engine was switched off, Sport mode will be active
when the engine is restarted.
