Driver mode system (auto only)
Available on our Automatic transmission models the driver can select varying drive modes (NORMAL / SPORT / WINTER) for safe driving and a customisable driving experience.
Normal
Balancing the need for fuel economy and power.
SPORT
Delivers extra power at the expense of fuel economy
winter
Starts the vehicle in second gear to prevent tires from slipping on icy roads in the winter.
Driver aids
hill descent control
Stay in control no matter how steep the incline. A low speed control activates when the vehicle is handling a steep downhill drive, automatically controlling the rate of descent.
hill start assist
Rolling backwards during a hill start is a thing of the past with the Korando. In these kinds of situations, hill start assist acts as an automatic handbrake and is a great benefit when driving in tricky conditions or when towing.
noise, vibration + harshness
A sophisticated engine mount system, alongside powertrain and driveline suppression measures, maximises noise reduction and has allowed the Korando to attain superb levels of NVH. Using new construction features such as under floor damping, pillar cavity foam, and a sound absorbing roof liner, the Korando is effective in isolating engine, road and exterior sounds for a quiet driving experience.
