Gearbox

Kick-down function

Kick-down can be used when maximum acceleration is needed, such as for overtaking.

Gearbox

The gearbox is part of the car's powertrain (power transmission) between engine and drive wheels. The function of the gearbox is to change the gear ratio depending on speed and power requirements.

Automatic gearbox

With an automatic gearbox, the system selects a gear so that you can drive as energy-efficiently as possible. The gearbox also has a manual gearshift mode.

Gear positions

A suitable gear is selected automatically according to the need for power and speed.

All-wheel drive

All-wheel drive (AWD) means that the car is driving all four wheels at the same time, which improves traction.

Changing gear with steering wheel paddles

The steering wheel paddles are a complement to the gear selector and make it possible to change gear manually without releasing hands from the steering wheel. The function is available in position D or B.

Gear selector inhibitor

The gear selector inhibitor prevents accidental changing between different gear positions in an automatic gearbox.

Gear shift indicator

The gear shift indicator in the driver display shows the current gear during manual gearshifting and when it is appropriate to engage the next gear for optimum fuel economy.
