Switch to Chill when the back seat is buckled in

When someone buckles up in the second row, acceleration drops to Chill so launches stay smooth.

Why it’s useful

Instant torque is fun for the driver and not so fun for a carsick kid or a grandparent in the back.

Menu names come from the English strings found in current firmware and may change slightly at launch. There is no way to import automations, so you build each one on the touchscreen. Full walkthrough

Tips

• Pair it with a rule on “Any seatbelt unbuckled” + “Gear is Park” that sets Standard again when you are driving solo.
