GENERAL

The SI-DRIVE (SUBARU Intelligent Drive) system is a system that allows selection of the vehicle driving mode, from the I (intelligent mode), S (sport mode), and S# (sport sharp mode). The mode is changed using the SI-DRIVE selector on the console.
- I (intelligent mode)
This is a mode that balances stress-free driving and fuel economy. This mode is optimal for driving in city areas where maximum power output is not required.
- S (sport mode)
This is an all-round driving mode that can be used anywhere. This mode is suited for driving on highways and open country roads.




- S# (sport sharp mode)
This is a driving mode for acceleration, etc, where more engine output is required. This mode is suited for driving in mountainous areas, when merging with traffic on highways, and for accelerating to overtake other cars.




The SI-DRIVE operation will be detected by the meter, and the ECM will be notified that the mode has changed by CAN communication through the integrated unit. The ECM will change the driving modes and display data on the meter.
