After announcing a much more capable version of Siri in June 2024, Apple delayed the Apple Intelligence-powered version of the personal assistant in May 2025. Around that time, there was a now-infamous pep talk given to the Siri team by the then-senior director of the project.

Acceleration is adequate in the standard drive mode, with Sport providing a bit more boost, enough to spin an inside front wheel in turns when pressed. The Eco mode was underwhelming, and while there’s a Personal mode to tweak your own combination of settings, we’d be shocked if anyone ever uses it.
