How to use it

Step by step.

  1. 01

    Use the center-console Drive Mode Selector and watch the selection appear in the vehicle display.

  2. 02

    Choose Standard on a front-wheel-drive QX60 or Auto on an all-wheel-drive QX60 for normal driving.

  3. 03

    Choose Sport for more responsive engine and transmission behavior or Eco for economy-focused response.

  4. 04

    Choose Personal to use configured steering and driving preferences.

  5. 05

    Choose Snow on snowy roads to moderate engine output and reduce wheelspin, then return to the normal mode when conditions clear.

Important limits

  • Snow mode helps manage output but cannot create traction; winter tires and safe speed remain essential.
  • Sport mode can reduce fuel economy, while Eco response does not guarantee a specific fuel-economy result.
  • Available behavior differs between front-wheel-drive and Intelligent AWD configurations.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓If Auto is not listed, confirm the QX60 is an AWD configuration; FWD vehicles show Standard instead.
  • ✓If Personal feels unchanged, review its configured steering and drive settings.
  • ✓If a mode warning persists after restarting, use the normal mode and have the system inspected.
