Setting performance options

  1. 1

    On the N mode screen, press Performance options.
  2. 2

    Select the performance option menu you want to set.

    Caution

    • •  It is recommended that only experienced drivers use it in safe places other than public roads.
    • •  The responsibility for accidents caused by the driver's negligence rests with the driver himself.
    1. Can select the vehicle's performance options.
      • •  N Launch Control: N Launch Control (NLC) helps enable quick acceleration when launching from a standing start. Select a road grip level suitable for the friction of the current road surface. Higher grip levels create a higher target wheel slip appropriate for higher-friction road surfaces, resulting in higher initial acceleration.
      • •  N e-Shift: N e-Shift recreates the feeling of driving a vehicle equipped with a combustion engine and transmission.
      • •  N Active Sound+: Select the preferred N Active Sound+ settings for this electric vehicle.
        • To turn off the N Active Sound+, press OFF.
      • •  N Road Sense: Recommendation to switch to N mode, when a double bend sign is detected (if equipped).
      • •  N Battery Preconditioning: Optimisation of the battery temperature in advance for the driving purpose. This may cause noises, vibrations, climate control performance degradation, and may reduce the driving range.
      • •  N Pedal: Three levels of recuperation are selectable. When releasing the accelerator pedal, a series of rapid decelerations provides enhanced load transfer and tuck-in response. Be mindful of safety. The vehicle may react sensitively when operating the accelerator pedal during track driving.
      • •  N Drift Optimizer: N Drift Optimiser (NDO) is available only in rear-wheel drive. When using this feature, Electronic Stability Control (ESC) intervention is minimised to allow oversteering. This can result in a spin-out, depending on the driver's actions.
      • •  N Race:N Race cools the motor and battery to the maximum for bettert rack driving performance. This may cause noises, vibrations, and climate system performance degradation. Frequent use of N Race may reduce battery durability.
      • •  N Torque Distribution: The front and rear torque distribution ratio can be selected by using the slider in the N Torque Distribution widget. Check to ensure that the settings are properly set before driving. The actual distribution ratio may differ temporarily from the set value depending on the driving conditions.
