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.
Four modes are available to you: efficiency,
comfort, dynamic, auto and the mode “individual”
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 rides. 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 for the TFSI und TDI engines
allows for consumption-optimised driving. As
an integral part of Audi drive select, it is
characterised by a changed shifting program
and more energy-efficient operation.
In any mode, the vehicle adjustments depend
on the equipment available. Audi drive select
interacts as standard with engine, transmission

and steering. In addition, you can influence the
adaptive air suspension with damper regulation,
the quattro with sports differential, the reversible
seat belt tensioner and the cornering light, if
available. 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
seat 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. 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.
