What does Sport Mode Actually Achieve?

I found the X2 handbook is very vague on what the Sport Mode actually does. It defines it as sporty steering and transmission.

That's very vague - sporty steering to me is sharper turn-in, a more sensitivity & feel, often but not necessarily more weight. Since it has EPAS I'm assuming it's going to be some sort of heavier (artificial) weight and nothing more?

As for transmission... I know it's not an M3 but I'd like to at least know what it does for shift patterns. I see it hangs on to the gear longer but what else? Does it change throttle mapping for something more aggressive as well?
