What does 'roadon' mean in the Volkswagen Touareg?
1 Answers
In the Volkswagen Touareg, 'roadon' refers to the car's highway mode, which is the normal driving state for highways. The roadon highway mode is suitable for driving on smooth roads. There is also 'roadoff', which is the off-road mode. Below are detailed introductions to the two modes: Roadon mode: Some vehicles offer a driving mode selection function, allowing drivers to choose from multiple driving modes via the four-wheel-drive control knob to meet different road condition requirements. The highway mode is economical, fuel-efficient, and comfortable, making it ideal for long-distance driving on smooth roads. Roadoff mode: Off-road mode, which activates ABSPlus, can identify whether the road surface is soft sand or soil. If it is soft sand or soil, the system will lock the wheels during braking, causing sand to accumulate in front of the wheels and shortening the braking distance. Without ABSPlus and using only regular ABS, the car would almost be unable to stop on soft sand or soil, with ASR intervening later to limit torque, and EDL intervening earlier to stop the spinning or slipping wheels.
