Not a gimmick at all, the Adaptive mode works as I outlined in a post above. What you quoted from me was the response to someone who doesn't have the Adaptive drive mode button and uses a voice command to set it to Adaptive.

Interesting, mine (2019) also equipped with adaptive mode. I also code to start with this mode.

I use it as the default mode on both of mine. Seems to be the perfect mode for me, it us a shame they got rid of it.

I've been using it for a few weeks, but over it. Car still wallows around too much in it. I switched back to sport plus and manual shift. MUCH more fun to tool around with.
