IM5
I've had my IM5 for some months now but I haven't tried out the various drive modes.
The manual is a bit sketchy.
So, switching from Comfort - the default mode to
Sport/Eco/Super eco does what exactly?
 
I thought the manual was quite clear:

Driving Mode

Warning: Switching the driving mode when the vehicle is in motion can divert driver's attention from road conditions and may

result in accidents.

Driving mode enables different tuning modes for power, brake, steering, suspension, instrument style, ambient light, active intake grille,

etc.

Through Central Screen - Settings - Driving, you can select Comfort Mode, and Energy-saving Mode, Sport Mode, Snow Mode* and

Personalized Mode*

.

 Comfort Mode: It combines economy, power and comfort, and meets the daily driving needs of users.

 ECO Mode: It runs with optimal energy consumption and extends driving range.

Note: In Energy-saving Mode, the vehicle offers the option of Super Energy Saving Mode, which allows for longer driving range by

limiting intelligent drive, A/C power, turning off electrical appliances such as ambient lights, multimedia and displays.

 Sport Mode: The vehicle obtains more power and improves riding ability in complex conditions.

 Snow Mode*: The vehicle runs under AWD to provide more stable driving feel in combination with the systems.

 Custom Mode*: The user can customize power, brake, steering, suspension and other systems.

When the vehicle is in Drive gear, the powertrain will switch between 2WD and 4WD modes according to the actual conditions and the

selected driving mode. In Energy-saving Mode, 2WD is preferred; in Sport Mode, 4WD is preferred.
 
Well. Not really - what does it switch off in eco or super eco. How much range...
Range difference depends almost totally on how you drive and the weather.

and - Driving mode enables different tuning modes for power, brake, steering, suspension, instrument style, ambient light, active intake grille, Just try it and see.
 
Thanks. I was just after a more detailed answer. Like which screens will go off, does the heating air con go off etc.
