Default There are four modes: Comfort, Dynamic, Auto and Efficiency

For the audi Q3, there are four modes that can be set.

Comfort, Dynamic, Auto and Efficiency

Efficiency mode: for consumption-optimised operation of the vehicle to maximise fuel efficiency. I'm assuming this is the engine ON/OFF and can be turned off via a button?

Comfort mode: for relaxed driving on long journeys or poor roads. Can someone explain exactly how this is activated or if it is automatic? Is this with ESP on or off?

Auto mode: for well balanced, comfortable but agile driving. What exactly is this? How do you configure for this? Is this with ESP on or off?

Dynamic mode: for spirited and highly responsive driving. Setting the S-tronic to S mode?

Also, I saw a video online that describes how the 0-100km time will be faster when dynamic mode is turned ON, ESP Off

Default Q3 Drive Select

Just about to change my trusty old A8 and am looking at a Q3 as a replacement - practicality reigns!

Is drive select worth paying £220 for on the Q3 or does it simply provide quick access to settings that can be made in other ways?
