Shift Point Change When Driving Up or Downhill Ranges

Shift point change when driving up or downhill ranges, 02E, 6 Speed Direct Shift A/T
At uphill or downhill ranges, the shifts are automatically selected dependent on accelerator pedal position and vehicle speed via additional shift characteristics maps.
^ Shift characteristics map for extreme uphill driving is adapted to the engine performance
^ Shift characteristics map for extreme downhill driving is adapted to the braking effect of the engine
^ Direct gear selection by way of the Tiptronic function permits utilization of engine braking action with a specific gear engaged, e.g. on a downhill gradient with a trailer.
