Correct. It's fairly useless though, so you're not missing out on much.

The only real difference it allows is Normal mode for the engine/trans with the stiffer chassis settings.

Alternatively, you could leave it in Normal chassis settings with "Power" settings for the engine/transmission but technically isn't this what the regular "Sport S" mode does anyway?

Other manufacturers let you individually adjust steering effort, steering response, engine response, transmission response, suspension dampening, etc. but not Lexus. IMO, it's useless in the way they've designed it. I've used it once just to try it but otherwise stick with the 4 modes we get. You're seriously missing out on nothing.

 

Wow you all are very conservative! I'm in S+ mode damn near 100% of the time! LOL

 

 

Doesn't do much when you are sitting in traffic

 

 

 

Lol... too jumpy for me in stop-n-go in sport mode. Really got to feather the throttle.

 

Not entirely true depending on model year. 2016+ can switch between Otto & Atkinson cycles. When in Eco mode & running under Atkinson, cylinders are faced with less resistance, resulting in less operating losses & greater fuel economy, even when you're just sitting at a light.
