Everybody defines driving dynamics differently.
We define it like this: drive exactly how you feel.
With the standard Audi drive select you can
influence individual vehicle components at the
push of a button and so change the character of
your Audi.
There are five modes available to you: efficiency,
comfort, dynamic, auto, and “individual” mode,
which allows you to determine yourself how the
associated vehicle components should behave. The
comfort mode is especially suitable for providing
the most relaxed driving possible on long journeys.
The auto mode offers a generally comfortable yet
sporty driving experience. For particularly sporty
driving, for example on winding roads, there is the
dynamic mode. The efficiency mode, meanwhile,
improves consumption values. As an integral part
of Audi drive select, it is characterised by a changed
shift program and reduced-energy operation
In every mode, the vehicle adjustments depend on
the equipment present. Audi drive select affects
the engine, transmission and steering as standard.
In addition, you can, when available, influence the
adaptive air suspension sport with damper
regulation, the quattro® with sports differential,
the reversible seat belt tensioner (part of Audi pre
sense basic) and the cornering light. The engine
and gears react more spontaneously or in a more
balanced manner to movements of the
accelerator, depending on the mode chosen.
Moreover, the engine speeds at which gear
changes take place are varied – in dynamic mode,
they only happen at higher engine speeds, while in
comfort mode they take place at lower ones.
The steering can also be adapted to the driving
situation, from sporty and firm to comfortable.
The threshold at which the reversible belt
tensioner (part of Audi pre sense basic) is
triggered is adjusted in the dynamic mode.
The vehicle height and the damping forces of
the damper regulation can be varied using the
adaptive air suspension sport. The sports
differential distributes the drive force variably to
the rear axle to attain a high level of agility and
acceleration performance while cornering. In
addition, the cornering light accompanies the
selected mode with its adapted swivelling
response.
The fuel consumption and CO₂ emission figures can be found from page 48 onwards.
