This way you get the best of both worlds. Adaptive button is essentially another drive mode...and it acts exactly how it sounds. It adapts to your drive conditions (if you are driving spirited it will be more aggressive on the throttle response and the steering and suspension will tighten up. If you are sitting in traffic, it will ease the throttle response, put everything into comfort basically and turn on your auto start/stop). I like to have control so I don't use adaptive but it seems like a lot of people do use it as their daily driving mode.
This actually really helped me understand it as well. But now I'm curious, had I not opted for the "adaptive m suspension" would my suspension settings still change between comfort, sport etc.. or do you lose that ability when you don't have the adaptive suspension?

Thanks
