Winter Drive Program

Wheel slip is calculated by the GS 20 based on wheel rotation data provided by the traction control system via CAN bus. The GS 20 modifies shift characteristics to match winter mode for better traction. When active, the transmission will start in second gear and the shift points are lowered. The purpose of this program is to improve the driveability of the vehicle with slippery road conditions.
