Comfort will cause the shifts to be made lower, power causes them to shift higher.

For instance, a shift at 2.5k in comfort would be a shift a 3-3.5k.

In conclusion, the power mode will raise the RPM level at which the transmission will shift.

At WOT, it doesn't matter what mode you are in.

where did he mentioned that it does not use more gas?

it uses more gas because your engine revs higher before shift.

do a search..about once a month someone asks this same question.
