I was taking a look at the R2 owner's guide and noticed it included conserve mode. Conserve mode notably isn't included on the dual-motor R1 as all purpose automatically it switches to single-motor FWD when efficient.

The R2 documentation curiously also states that "Conserve mode automatically switches between rear-wheel and all-wheel drive when conditions allow." How is that different from all purpose?

Anyone know what conserve mode actually does on the R2? I would have assumed it locks in single-motor RWD, but the owners guide suggests otherwise. I also don't understand why conserve mode would be available on the dual-motor R2, but not the dual-motor R1.

Conserve forces RWD unless you really put the accelerator down.
