Brake functions
The vehicle's brakes are used to reduce speed or prevent the vehicle from rolling.
In addition to the wheel brakes and parking brakes, the vehicle is also equipped with a number of automatic brake assist functions. These systems help the driver by e.g. keeping the vehicle stationary when the brake pedal is not depressed (e.g. at a traffic light or intersection), when starting up a hill or when driving down a hill.
Depending on how the vehicle is equipped, the following brake assist functions may be included:
- Auto-hold brakes (Auto Hold)
- Hill Start Assist (Hill Start Assist)
- Braking assist after a collision
- City Safety
- Hill Descent Control (Hill Descent Control)*
