BOOST is a more dynamic driving mode due to its powerful electrical engine. Interior configurations change depending on which deriving mode is selected, for example, in an autonomous mode it retracts under the sound bar to make the 49-inch central screen fully visible. Front seats will also recline and side armrests automatically deploy revealing storage areas and inductive charging for devices such as phones.
