Driving characteristics
Explore the features that affect driving performance and dynamics. This can allow you to customise your driving experience.

Your car has several features that affect the driving dynamics and performance.
| Drive modes | Your car has different drive modes to choose from, which are suited for different kinds of driving. Selecting a drive mode changes the driving dynamics and can sometimes affect what settings are available. |
|---|---|
| One pedal drive | This allows you to both brake and accelerate using only the accelerator pedal. One pedal drive can be turned on or off and adjusted in the centre display. |
| Automatic creeping | This allows you to drive at very low speeds without holding down the accelerator. You can enable or disable automatic creeping in settings. |
| Start and stop | The start and stop feature reduces fuel consumption and emissions by letting you temporarily turn the engine off during brief stops while keeping the car's systems active. |
| Electronic stability control[1] | Your car has automatic stability control systems in place that can help to prevent skidding. |
| Steering feel | Adjusting the steering feel affects the steering wheel resistance and firmness. |
Your car makes different sounds depending on the driving conditions and situation. For example, you may hear sounds while battery preconditioning, charging and driving. This does not necessarily indicate an issue.Note
Tip
Exterior sound
Your car plays an artificial driving sound when you are driving at low speeds. This is to alert others of your presence.
