Is Sport+ only for AMG?

The manual points out when features are exclusive to AMG or Maybach but it doesn't say anything about Sport+ mode. Should all models have this or only AMG? Because I don't have Sport+ on my 580.

I also have it on mine and my 580 also has E-ABC. But the manual (pg 175) seems to indicate it should work with either Airmatic or E-ABC. I also found this video on Car & Driver that, while not answering your question, still has some information I found useful regarding Drive Modes. http://a.msn.com/08/en-us/BBZLbI5?ocid=scu2

I don't have EABC. The manual says you only need it for Curve mode. I'm gonna email MB and ask them.

Ok. Do you have a 2020 GLS without EABC? I'd like to get confirmation from a couple of people to save me a trip.

It's there on my 20 580 w/ eABC. I use the console mounted switch and just scroll up. It's between Sport and Individual in the menu.

Exactly. There are a couple of options for everything that are hidden in the "scroll". If you don't notice the side bar that tells you there are more options to go. It has happened to me more than a few times. The problem is that the options are vast!

interesting. I purchased the off road package, so, instead of sport+, I have "off road + " listed as an option. can you confirm that you don't have the off road package?

I have the same list as Madkow and can confirm that I don't have the offroad package or the offroad + option in my list. I just have the plain offroad function.

so, I think the off road package will give you the "off road +" option under Dynamic section, but then you lost the sport +
