Volvo XC90: Driver support / Drive modes when using time interval to vehicle
The driver can choose different drive modes to determine how driver support
should maintain a time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Settings are made using the DRIVE MODE controls.

will increase the time interval to the vehicle ahead.
- Comfort - Driver support will focus on following the set time interval
to the vehicle ahead as smoothly as possible.
