The "S" mode in your car signifies the sport setting that enables you to manually shift gears using the toggle on the gear shifter. Engaging this mode boosts the car's performance by delaying gear shifts and increasing engine revolutions. This results in enhanced power delivery, allowing you to accelerate faster. However, a trade-off is that you will consume fuel at an accelerated rate, approximately 1.5 times faster than in normal driving mode.
