When the shift lever is in the S position, the shift lever or paddle shift
switches (if equipped) can be operated as follows:
Upshifting
Downshifting
The initial shift range in S mode is set automatically to S5 or S4
according to vehicle speed.
■ Shift ranges and their functions
● You can choose from 6 levels of accelerating force and engine
braking force.
● A lower shift range will provide greater accelerating force and
engine braking force than a higher shift range, and the engine
revolutions will also increase.
● If you accelerate while in ranges 1 to 4, the shift range may auto-
matically increase in accordance with the vehicle speed.
