Question Driving Mode - Missing Sport+ ??

I've just taken delivery of a GLE 450 AMG with Prem+ and Tech Pack and the Airmatic suspension.

It's a lovely vehicle, and apart from one build related issue (the right side wheel arch trim poorly fitting at the lower edge), everything appears to work as it should.

However... for driving modes, I have "Comfort", "Sport", "Eco" and "Off Road". There is no sign of Sport+ ?

Any trick i'm missing here to activate it? or is it just not available? (i'm in the UK).

It's an odd one - several reviews refer to Sport+ but perhaps not for UK specific cars.

My 350 doesn't have Sport+ either.

I have it on my GLC 43 and will not miss it on the 450, unless you are on a race track it is pointless.
