Default Seat belt question

I have tried google and the manual with no luck regarding the following.

When I borrowed the demonstrator car prior to purchasing my 992, the seat belts when fastened would give an additional “hug” or tug.

My car doesn’t do this nor can I find a setting. Is this something that comes with an option on the vehicle?

Thanks.

It will do it. Drive your car harder.

At low speeds it "adjusts".
On the track, under hard braking it really snugs you in (precrash prep) , actually caught me by surprise. It tightens and stays tight.

Mine does it every time. I think it does it at about 5 or 10 MPH.
