Lincoln Aviator: Drive Mode Control / What Is Drive Mode Control

The system delivers a driving experience through a suite of sophisticated electronic vehicle systems. These systems optimize steering, handling and powertrain response. This provides a single location to control multiple systems performance settings.

Changing the drive mode automatically changes the functionality of the following systems:

Electronically power-assisted steering system adjusts steering effort and feel based on the mode you select.
Electronic stability control and traction control maintains your vehicle control in adverse conditions or high performance driving.
Electronic throttle control enhances the powertrain response to your driving inputs.
Transmission controls optimize with shift schedules tuned to each mode.
AWD settings become optimized and tuned to each mode.

The system automatically tailors your vehicle configuration for each mode you select.

Note: Not all settings, or modes, may be available.

Note: The system has diagnostic checks that continuously monitor the system for proper operation. If a mode is unavailable due to a system fault, the mode defaults to Normal.
