Eco or Sport Mode Changes

I have owned a '22 R4P XSE PP for about 18 months, and am just recently enjoying experimenting with Eco and Sport modes. Makes it feel like a different car.

Is there any difference in suspension or steering response, or just throttle and regenerative braking response?

Thanks!

For those who enjoy trying various modes, would love to hear how its going for you and in what driving situations you shift to what mode.

In Sport mode the steering gets a little tighter. No change to the suspension as far as I know.

One thing I've found is that at least for me, there is very little difference in EV and gas efficiency between the modes. If anything I might get slightly less EV range in Eco mode than in Normal or Sport modes. Go figure.

For a while I would go back and forth between modes depending on my mood that day but lately I'm just leaving it in Normal.
