Sport mode versus Sport+

Hello,

I'm a new owner of a C300 2015 fully loaded, with 4Matic and all other possible options that can possibly be added to this car.

I noticed that there is a sudden difference when I use the Sport mode from when I use the Sport+ mode.

For example: Using Sport mode, the car is aggressive but not as aggressive as when using the Sport+ (specially from 0-60mph)

Another thing I noticed is that the muffler makes a cool sound (like the Maseratis do) only when using the Sport+ mode. (specially when there is a gear change in high RPM)

I tried to find information about what actually happens when sport mode is enabled, but nothing really that I could give credit for.

This car (C300 2015) has basically the same technology as the Audi quattro and the xDrive BMWs, which means that when using Sport+ would not make sense to disable traction control.

My previous car was a BMW 335i (V6 twin-turbo 300hp), and to be very honest I almost have the same feeling that I had with my BMW 335i(when using Comfort mode) when accelerating this C300 2015 (4 cylinders twin-turbo 241 hp) in Sport+ mode.
