The Essence: The dynamic steering system is the core of Audi Drive Select, with most functionalities realized through this system.

Audi owners might have noticed that dial or button—I often play around with the drive mode selector. It offers four basic options: Comfort mode, perfect for city commutes, features light steering and soft suspension, making it feel like driving on a couch; Dynamic mode, with a press, unleashes explosive engine throttle response, and the body stays planted like it's glued to the road during corners—my weekend getaway favorite; Auto mode intelligently adjusts all parameters, ideal for beginners or long highway trips; Efficiency mode optimizes throttle and transmission for better fuel economy, a wallet-saver in traffic jams. Since buying the car, I've been using it and find switching modes for different road conditions incredibly satisfying—Dynamic mode sparks driving joy on highways, while Comfort mode prevents skidding in the rain. Audi's design isn't flashy but practical, integrated near the steering wheel for effortless, hassle-free switching.
