Adaptive does not "smooth" the ride. Yes, there are three settings you can choose for the damping, but that's not the real thing happening here.

Adaptive suspension, as you should guess from the name, adapts constantly. Each axle is evaluated many times per second to determine settings based upon your choice of the three modes as well as what each tire is encountering on the road.

With the great chassis on this car the cornering is so flat it's amazing to find this side of a track-specific car. Whether on the road or on the track the performance was fantastic. I got off the Nurburgring with a big smile amazed at just how planted it was.
