Difference between Sport and touring

Is there a real difference in the Sport mode and Touring mode for the V6 Camaro (non Npp) I can't seem to tell when driving.

sport will hold gears longer to increase how quick it takes off and i believe you have to be in sport for performance shift mode to engage.

Differences in non NPP sport and touring

In sport mode:
1. Throttle a bit more responsive
2. Steering a bit tighter
3. Shifting with automatic in each gear held a bit longer

All these changes are subtle if not downright impossible to feel.

So I'm not the only that doesn't see a big difference. Thanks for the confirmation

Taking a sharp turn in Sport vs Touring will give you a better feel for the difference. I notice the difference in the modes, but I'm sure it depends on the person.

I feel the difference too, especially in the steering. Shifts also seem crisper and more eager in Sport.

I notice a difference between sport and tour. shifts seem more firm and gears are definitely held longer, steering feels tighter

Same here, steering is tighter and gears are held longer.

Sport mode is used daily for me

I have a manual transmission... I feel no difference at all. That snow mode is the only one that changes anything for me. It makes takeoffs sluggish and changes the throttle response.

Does everyone else use sport as daily or tour?
