When the Sprint function is activated, the re‐
sponse of the vehicle will become more dynamic.
Activating
1. Keep the left shift paddle pulled until SPRINT
is displayed in the instrument cluster.
▷ The transmission shifts down to the low‐
est possible gear and switches to manual
operation M.
▷ A dynamic setting has been activated for
the drive system.

I've only tried this 2-3 times, but I can confirm that I have sprint mode. Do you have paddles?
