I3S iDrive upgraded to ID6.
Does the i3S only make more power and have the higher top speed when it's in sport mode? Is the engine "tune" stored on the iDrive?

Perhaps I fundamentally don't understand how these cars work. They're certainly vastly different than what I'm familiar/comfortable with!

To your question, I'd guess the "comfort" button vs the "sport" button is probably just a difference of what's silk screened on the switch-- not the underlying electronic functionality.
