What do the letters E, S, and W next to the Roewe 350 automatic transmission mean?
2 Answers
E stands for Economy mode, W stands for Winter (snow) mode, and S refers to Sport mode. Here is some relevant information about the Roewe 350: 1. Exterior Design: The Roewe 350 features a globalized styling. With a wheelbase of 2650mm, its dimensions are 4521/1788/1492mm (length/width/height). It incorporates the Flying-V brand DNA and is based on the design of the Roewe N1 concept car. The chrome-accented headlight brows give the Roewe 350 a sharper and more dynamic look. 2. Interior Design: The interior of the Roewe 350 follows the brand's signature T-shaped layout, trading excessive flamboyance for a more understated sporty appeal. The two-tone interior adopts a home-oriented design approach, while the wood grain trim inserts add a touch of sophistication. The manufacturer also offers an optional all-black interior.
As a seasoned driver who has owned a Roewe 350 for several years, I'm always happy to explain this common question from newcomers. That ESW button next to the steering wheel is actually the transmission mode selector. E mode stands for Economy - it's fuel-efficient and smooth for daily driving, keeping engine RPMs low. S mode is Sport, which feels particularly responsive during overtaking as the transmission delays upshifting for more power. W mode is designed specifically for winter or rainy conditions, preventing wheel spin during acceleration - especially useful for snowy days in northern regions. Actually, many cars have similar designs, but Roewe's operating logic is quite user-friendly.
