Philo package on sport mode

you have the assetto fiorano pack?

 

No prob. I’m not aware that wet mode changes the suspension on that car with the package. I’ll try it tomorrow.

 

Also, you can drive in performance all you want. Quali definitely charges the battery best.

 

Qualifying gives the most power. Performance favors the engine with hybrid infill, so I think it's funny that it doesn't preserve the battery as well. Yes, you can plug it in if it's 0, or just run it in qualifying for a few minutes before you get home. On the road, largely the same performance.

 

Here's a breakdown of each mode:

• eDrive:
  In this mode, the internal combustion engine (ICE) is completely switched off, and the car operates solely on electric power from the electric motor. The 296 GTB can travel up to 25 km (16 miles) on electric power alone, reaching a top speed of 135 km/h (84 mph). This mode is ideal for quiet, emission-free driving in urban environments.
• Hybrid:
  This is the default mode when starting the car. The system intelligently manages the interaction between the engine and motor, prioritizing efficiency and optimizing overall performance. The car can switch between electric-only, engine-only, or a combination of both, depending on driving conditions and driver input.
• Performance:
  In this mode, the engine remains constantly engaged, even when the battery is fully charged. The system prioritizes maintaining battery charge to ensure maximum power is available when needed. This mode is suitable for spirited driving and more demanding situations where instant power delivery is crucial.
• Qualifying:
  This mode unlocks the maximum combined power output of the engine and electric motor, delivering the highest level of performance. It prioritizes performance over battery recharging, meaning the battery will deplete more quickly in this mode. This mode is designed for maximum acceleration and top speed, such as during track driving.

 

The Assetto package doesnt have adjustable suspension, only the base model does. In wet mode the other systems are more relaxed making the drive feel smoother but there should be no change to the stiffness of the suspension. Anyone else want to confirm this?

Also congrats on the new car, I have a feeling from your other posts its the Black with Red stripes that was recently for sale, I checked it out in person, insane build..

 

Yes, changing the settings does nothing to the suspension on the AF.

 

As a florida guy I was thinking to get an AF as well but hear a lot of people mention the stiff suspension and Dbops618 confirms it further. That is also my concern with the Speciale since does not have adjustable suspension either. My days of stiff cars are over however im still jealous of that suspesnion performance. The AF runs under 7 sec Nurburgring times and is faster than a GT2RS on track.

 

I’m in Florida with the AF. I’m very happy with the trade off. So far- never bottomed either.

 

It is bumpy, but not jarring. I just drove my speciale in Race mode without bumpy road on, and it is more jarring but the same amount of bumpy. The AF suspension does a good job of softening the peaks of the bumps, but with the car being relatively light, it is bumpy. On good tarmac, oh so good.

 

Im wondering if East coast or West.. Here in S. FL theres a lot of construction and unpleasant roads where I think the stiff characteristics will come out more often. If I lived over in Naples for instance I dont think it would be an issue. In Dragtimes review of the Yellow AF, he didnt mention anything about the ride and the camera looked quite stable, but other reviews online show the cabin bouncing all around, so I really do think its based on the roads where you drive. Thoughts?

 

Ya It was for sale for over half a year, the previous owner speced it into the 500s and they were asking a steep price for the used market. I made a high offer that I believed was good but they werent budging. The price dropped a bunch right when you got it, so good move on waiting it out for a bit. The red seats threw me off online, but in person they look so good and fit the car perfect. I also love the red lines along the outline of the car. Overall the car you got is very unique and incredibly spec'd. I hope you truly enjoy it.
