45e drive modes settings

Hi new 45e owner, coming from a F15 3.0d.
(along with some previous 5 series, 1 series and 4 M3's)

Absolutely love the car, might be the best ive ever driven in terms of comfort and technical features.

Just trying to figure out the different drive modes, im I right that only Sport and Electrical are customizable?
Like say I would like to have the steering or suspensjon in sport while in hybrid mode, is that not possible?

Thanks!

No you can't.

Congrats on the new car !

For shorter drives I drive electric individual. I selected to have set this one as default at startup (no coding)I have set steering to sport because I think it is to light in comfort.

Longer trips on the highway in adaptive.

Mountain roads or country roads with lots of turns: sport.

I am never in hybrid mode.

I have sport individual set: steering sport, engine sport, gear and suspension comfort. If you set engine in comfort too I think you are principally driving in hybride mode with sport steering. But without the adaptive navigation/ economy and Battery management.

How do you set a certain drive mode as default?

You can only set electric individual as default. It is in the menu where you do the settings for electric individual.
