Activating off-road
Activating off-road raises the car's suspension, giving it a higher ground clearance. It also activates hill descent control, allowing your car to brake in a more controlled and active way when driving downhill.
Activating the off-road feature raises your car's suspension and enables hill descent control1.
Raising the suspension of your car gives it a higher ground clearance which can be useful when driving off-road. It can also be useful in other situations, such as when you are going up or down steep slopes or high kerbs.
HDC can be useful if you are driving downhill as it allows your car to brake in a more controlled and active way to help you avoid unwanted acceleration. Along with more controlled braking, HDC changes the feel of the accelerator pedal to improve control and traction on slippery surfaces.
Note
The off-road feature has limitations and is only available below certain driving speeds. Driving with the suspension raised is only available at speeds below 25 km/h (15 mph). By default, your car's suspension automatically returns to its previous height when that speed limit is exceeded. However, HDC is available until you reach 40 km/h (25 mph). Driving at higher speeds automatically disables the off-road feature in full.
