Default Hard Break during Sport Mode
Hi everybody,

I meant Hard Brake during Sport Mode, sorry.

Just want to know if this is normal. Everytime I am driving on Sport Mode,and I do a hard brake, the car seems to downshift the gear, and the RPM needle is always aroud 3, or 4. Is it normal?

Thanks,

Completely normal. That's what sport mode is for. While breaking hard it downshifts a couple gears in order to provide good power after.

It esentially becomes more aggressive all around.
