it allows u to reach a higher rpm in a shorter time... so that u can gain speed faster.. if u want to overtake a car or bid traffic light.... but not advisable to use it for normal driving..


We can never judge the lives of others, because only each person knows their own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path.

It's like the "O/D" (Over Drive) mode.
Overtaking car is shiok , strong with power!!! Unbeatable!! I tried it a few times, very pwerful.

For our sedan ride only have O/D button....tried it once and its nice feeling to floor it w/o gear changing to 4...very easy to overtake but think 'drink' quite alot of petrol... :w00t:

FYI, "O/D" is for 4AT tranny; "SPORT" is for CVT tranny... So Sedan with 4AT & Base Sport with 4AT comes with "O/D"; Sedan Premium and Sport with CVT comes with "SPORT".
Hope this clarifies...

Yup initially did not understand why the sedan premium CVT has "sport" while my ride only O/D...anyway the effect between O/D on 4AT & "Sport" on CVT similar rite? Just curious but any bro/sis tried the difference?  :confused1:
