Drivers can choose between three driving modes courtesy of the DNA toggle switch on the central console (DNA stands for Dynamic, Normal and All-weather). In truth, you’ll only ever drive the car in Dynamic mode, because if you don’t, the throttle responses are unbelievably slow. Even then, they’re not the sharpest. Dynamic mode also dumps more weight into the steering, but it still feels vague and slow to respond, limiting the fun you’ll have. Body control isn’t particularly impressive, either, but despite the sloppiness, the ride is still punishingly hard on the standard suspension. The more powerful petrol and diesel engines get a different setup as standard, but we haven’t tried it yet. The hottest Quadrifoglio Verde version has another suspension setup that uses electronically controlled shock absorbers, but we haven’t tried that yet, either.
