Mazda 2: Drive Selection
Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle's drive mode. When the
sport mode is
selected, vehicle's response against accelerator operation is enhanced. Use the
sport mode
when higher vehicle response is required such as merging onto expressway or
accelerating
to overtake.
CAUTION
Do not use the sport mode when driving on slippery roads such as wet or
snow-covered
roads. It may cause tyre slipping.
NOTE
When the sport mode is selected, driving at higher engine speeds increases
and it may
increase fuel consumption. Mazda recommends to cancel the sport mode on normal
driving.
