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 provide assistance by e.g. the driver not needing to depress the brake pedal at a traffic light or when starting up a hill.
Depending on how the vehicle is equipped, the following brake assist functions may be included:
- Auto-hold brake when stationary (Auto Hold)
- Hill Start Assist (Hill Start Assist)
- Braking assist after a collision
- Regenerative braking
- Warning and auto-braking while backing up
- Assistance at risk of collision
- Off-road mode
