In those situations I can't really play with the modes much. But more importantly, the car has such stupid levels of power and torque that it doesn't seem to matter whatsoever in relaxed driving. It seems to pull plenty hard from any gear. I'll need better weather and to be alone to play around with automatic shift programs.
I always ask about the automatics because I was so traumatized by the Mercedes AMG 9G trionic —which scarred me for life.
