Its next-generation ATCU Control Unit allows it to select from 11 distinct operational modes in foreseeing what a manual driver would do in different circumstances.
Modes include auto-sport, mountain and downhill, cold and hot mode where it monitors its own operating temperature and enters cooling mode above 120C, and stop and go, where stress in urban conditions is minimised by the selection of 2nd gear instead of first in stop-start traffic for a less jerky operation.
With the Durashift 5-tronic, the driver can switch between automatic and manual mode at any time and at speed.
