Default Re: First-ever Ford Focus Active

The "M" is for manual mode. I have it in my 19.75 build (June 2019) Trend, and it enables more control over the gears (holds them longer if desired). I have the Driver Assist Package AND paddle-shifts in the Trend.

I believe the "L" stands for lower gears (not sure how many that is), which is what my Mrs has on the Puma (no paddle shifters).

So it sounds like Ford have, indeed, "de-contented" the newest models. Be interesting to find out what (if anything) might have got added.
