AGS (Adaptive Transmission Control): Notes
The GS 20 adaptive transmission control feature automatically selects suitable shifting programs based on driving style, selected range, monitored signal activity and road/environmental conditions. Advantages to the AGS shift control include:
- Shift points adapted to the driving style.
- Improved safety - no unwanted up shifting while in a tight curve.
- Automatic determination and selection of the winter program for better driveaway traction and reduced shift activity.
- Improved comfort - starting in second gear in stop and go traffic.
The AGS can be divided into two functional groups:
- Driver influenced features.
- Features that react automatically to the driving style and environmental conditions.
