No difference in power, or gearing. It is just a package of options that includes larger wheels, sport suspension, sport seats, etc. The sport packages vary by where the vehicle was sold; UK, US, Canada, and Australia can all have slight differences depending on the year the vehicle was produced.

Also, alcantara headliner and clear turn signals front and rear were standard on US models with the sport package, not sure about your area though.

I really feel like the tuning is different on the sport package auto box. call me crazy but I think it changes up/down better under spirited driving.

There is no different automatic box on the sport package.

All Steptronics have a sport mode, however, whether or not the vehicle has the sports package. Just move the shift lever to the left.
