Select and Use a QX60 Drive Mode
Choose Standard or Auto, Sport, Personal, Eco, or Snow to match response to the trip and equipped FWD or AWD drivetrain.
Drive modes, launch functions, traction settings, transmission controls and performance features.
Each guide keeps its market, model-year, powertrain and equipment limits attached. A listed model does not imply the feature is standard on every trim.
Choose Standard or Auto, Sport, Personal, Eco, or Snow to match response to the trip and equipped FWD or AWD drivetrain.
Match AUTO, SNOW, SAND/MUD or Trailhawk ROCK calibration to the actual surface instead of leaving the wrong traction strategy active.
Use the 2024 Grecale GT steering-wheel selector without implying Trofeo-only Corsa availability.
Meet every launch condition, build engine speed against the brake and release for maximum acceleration.
Lift the nose for a driveway or ramp and optionally store that GPS position for automatic future raising.
Create a private-course track map, add sectors and save it for later lap timing and analysis.
Choose an AMG DYNAMIC SELECT program from the steering-wheel control and configure Individual settings in MBUX.
Use the double-Neutral sequence to switch the ARIYA off while leaving it rollable for a level conveyor car wash.
Turn on e-Step from the center console, then enable Retain Mode in Driver Assistance settings if you want the choice remembered.
Use the mode selector to match powertrain behavior to everyday, economy, sport, towing, snow, or equipped 4WD terrain conditions.
Select 4H or 4LO, stay within the manual's speed limit, and switch Hill Descent Control on before a steep low-speed descent.
Use 4H for loose or slippery surfaces and follow the stop, Neutral and brake sequence before selecting or leaving 4LO.
Use the center-console drive-mode selector for the road, load and drivetrain, then confirm the chosen mode in the driver display.
Choose a predefined steering-resistance setting while retaining the vehicle's automatic speed-dependent assistance.
Choose the surface-specific Dual-Function X-MODE setting before entering a low-traction section.
Arm AVH on the home screen so the Crosstrek can remain stopped after you release the brake pedal.
Use the brake and START/STOP button, then rely on the READY indicator rather than engine sound.
Use the home-screen control to disable automatic engine stops and verify the yellow OFF indicator.
Enable AVH from the home screen, stop with the brake, and let the hybrid remain held after you lift your foot.
Enable AVH from the home screen, stop fully with the brake, and let the Impreza remain held.
Cycle the drive-mode switch to balance everyday response, stronger acceleration or reduced energy demand.
Activate S-Pedal Drive and modulate the accelerator for stronger lift-off deceleration while retaining brake-pedal responsibility.
Select the surface mode below 13 mph, then engage Grip Control for a controlled 1–6 mph crawl.
Raise the truck and pressurize its battery enclosure before a carefully assessed shallow-water crossing.
Precondition the battery and drive unit, wait for both readiness messages and use the documented launch sequence on a closed course.
Temporarily keep the gasoline engine running at stops, then restore automatic idle-stop operation.
Keep the service brakes applied at a stop and release them automatically when accelerating.
Choose the EX30's everyday, efficiency-focused or performance-focused calibration from Driving dynamics.
Select the sedan's plug-in-hybrid Hybrid, Pure, Power or constant all-wheel-drive calibration without applying B5 behavior.
Request maximum initial acceleration from the B5 after stopping completely and selecting D.
Let the mild-hybrid engine pause at a suitable stop and restart it by releasing the brake or pressing the accelerator.
Request maximum standstill acceleration after selecting D and a supported T8 drive mode.
Open the matching vehicle guide and read its availability note first. When the retail trim or package is not named by the official source, use the window sticker, manufacturer build record or the visible control in the vehicle.
