T8 DRIVE MODES

For the T8 Twin Engine, specific Drive Modes are available to choose from, fitting the hybrid character of the car:

- Hybrid mode (default) where both engines use is optimized in terms of performance, fuel consumption and

comfort. On cars with air suspension, focus is on comfort.

- Pure/Eco mode affecting engine, gearbox and climate system: prioritizing electric operation and low-energy

consumption including information to the driver to drive economically. On cars with air suspension, the car is

lowered with 2 cm above 70km/h for lower aerodynamic drag.

- AWD mode: activating AWD to overcome slippery conditions at low speeds. Air suspension is programmed

for maximum comfort.

- Power mode: petrol and electric motor are working in parallel and ensuring maximum performance, sporty

characteristics and quick response by tuning the steering, brakes, ESC, Start/Stop and active (engine) sound

control. On cars with air suspension, the chassis is lowered with 2cm and the Four-C dampers are adapted.

- Off road mode: up to 40 km/h, this mode reduces the accelerator sensitivity, locks the differentials,

automatically activates Hill Descent Control, sets the steering in Comfort mode, optimizes gearbox and engine

for traction and sets the ECS to Traction/Sport. On cars with air suspension, ground clearance is increased

with 4cm.

- Save for later mode: charges the battery securing at least 20km pure electric driving when arriving at a city.

- Individual mode: allowing the driver to change any of the settings relating to the preset modes.
