Integrated Dynamics System (IDS)

The Integrated Dynamics System automatically and seamlessly fine-tunes the vehicle on a real-time basis to help maximize performance and driver enjoyment, regardless of conditions.

Systems adjusted via mode selection include:

• Throttle response
• Automatic transmission function
• Active Sound Control (ASC)
• Electric Power Steering (EPS)
• Adaptive Damper System (ADS) (Advance Package)
• Super-Handling All-Wheel-Drive™ (SH-AWD^®)
• Idle stop functionality
• Interior lighting theme

• Comfort mode optimizes throttle response, shifting, electric power steering and SH-AWD® rear-wheel torque-vectoring (if TLX is so equipped) for the most luxurious driving experience. This setting makes the TLX relaxed and easy to drive.
• Normal mode enhances throttle, SH-AWD® rear-wheel torque-vectoring control (SH-AWD® models), EPS and ADS (Advance Package) to sharpen vehicle dynamics. This setting provides direct and sport-tuned response and feel.
• Sport mode adjusts transmission shift mapping, throttle response, SH-AWD®, EPS, ADS (Advance Package) and Active Sound Control (ASC) to maximize the driver experience.
• Individual allows drivers to independently select their desired setting (Comfort, Normal or Sport) for all controlled dynamic systems including powertrain (throttle response, transmission shift mapping and Active Sound Control [ASC]), steering, SH-AWD®, idle stop, Adaptive Damper System and interior lighting schemes.
