There's a 2022 XC40 in the extended family. While helping to restore previous vehicle preferences/functions after the displays all went to Mandarin (long & very weird story) I came across this in the owner's manual online:

Dynamic

  • Dynamic mode is designed to help provide sportier driving characteristics and a faster acceleration response.

Gear shifting will be faster and more distinct and the transmission will prioritize gears with a higher traction force.

Steering response is faster and suspension is stiffer2 to help reduce body roll when cornering.

The Start/Stop function is activated the entire time the drive mode is used.

Maybe it's just me, but having auto engine stop as an obligatory part of sporty driving seems to make about as much sense as the Swedish Chef's recipe for Chocolate Mo[o]se.
