Automatic gearbox
Four-speed automatic gearbox which offers a choice between the comfort of fully automatic operation, enhanced by sport and snow programmes, or manual gear changing.
There are therefore four driving modes:
- automatic operation for electronic management of the gears by the gearbox,
- sport programme for a more dynamic style of driving,
- snow programme to improve driving when traction is poor,
- sequential operation for manual changing of the gears by the driver.
