instrument cluster. Refer to “Instrument Cluster Descrip-
tion” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.

suspension with better handling.
• Track Mode — This mode includes SPORT Suspension
and affects transmission shifting in either Auto or
Manual mode. Refer to “AutoStick” in “Starting And
Operating” for further information. In TRACK mode,
the transmission has a sportier, more aggressive shift
pattern. In Manual mode, the transmission will hold
gear at redline during manual shifting (console shifter
or paddle shifters).

Acceleration

pery surfaces may cause the driving wheels to pull
erratically to the right or left. This phenomenon occurs
when there is a difference in the surface traction under
the rear (driving) wheels.
