The "DS" Mode

Can someone explain? How does it work?

When I switch the shifter left to the DS position, just realized I don't need to manually shift using the center shifter or paddles. How does it differ with full automatic mode?

It's still "automatic" in the sense that you don't need to shift, but the **** points are moved and adapt according to your driving. In addition, the shift points move higher on the rpm band to cater for sportier driving. The revs are held for longer periods of times at higher rpms, etc.
