What exactly are the 3 settings in this picture.

I assume from what I've read, the "Sport" setting is 80:20 rear biased
I also assume the "Eco" mode is 50:50 rear/front torque split

What is the "Comfort" setting? Something in between that? 65:35? Does Kia have any published material regarding this?

Very curious

I have been wondering the same thing. Looked everywhere asked on another forum......no answer. I think in comfort it is 40/60, it is ECO that I am unsure about. I am not sure what would lead to better fuel economy, a 50/50 split, or a 20/80 like sport. Hopefully someone here knows.

It is not a locked split between axles. ECO will limit it to 40% to the front tires. SPORT limits 20% to the front tires unless it's a GTS. COMFORT up to a 50% split.

None of them are locked at a certain split. It is always fluid until it reaches the limit set by the drive mode.

Where are you getting these numbers from?
