What does the Sport button on the Leiling mean?
2 Answers
It refers to the Leiling's sport mode. When pressed, it activates the sport mode, which enhances power output by increasing fuel injection and delaying gear shifts. Delayed upshifts allow the vehicle to achieve greater acceleration, resulting in faster speed gains. In S-gear sport mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shift timing is delayed, keeping the engine at higher RPMs for longer periods to deliver instant high torque and boost vehicle power. Below are relevant details: Exterior: In terms of dimensions, the new model measures 4640/1780/1455mm in length/width/height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. The length and width are slightly increased compared to the current model, while the height is reduced, and the wheelbase remains unchanged. Notes: During car maintenance, waxing is often applied to prevent rust. However, frequent waxing can also have negative effects, such as damaging the car's paint and causing the color to dull over time.
In my Leiling car, the SPORT button is a driving mode switch. When pressed, the car enters a sporty state with more sensitive throttle response—light pressure on the accelerator results in quicker and more spirited acceleration. The steering assist is also enhanced, providing a more solid and feedback-rich feel during turns, which is particularly useful for mountain roads or high-speed overtaking, offering more precise handling. This feature is achieved through system software fine-tuning, and for automatic transmission models, it delays gear shifts to maintain higher RPMs for increased power. I don’t use it much in daily city traffic due to slightly higher fuel consumption and increased noise, but it comes in handy for weekend getaways or when I want to add some driving excitement. The button is typically located below the center console or near the gearshift, with a green indicator light signaling activation. Turning it off automatically reverts the car to normal mode. I find this design in the Leiling quite thoughtful, adding a bit of fun to daily commutes—just use it wisely and avoid keeping it on all the time.
