What does the hill-start assist control system do?

The hill-start assist control system is designed to help the driver start the vehicle on a steep incline. When the system is engaged, it applies the brakes and holds the vehicle in place while the driver shifts their foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal. This helps prevent the vehicle from rolling backward and makes it easier to get moving on a steep hill. The hill-start assist control system can be activated by pressing a button on the dash. Once engaged, the system will automatically hold the brakes for two seconds after the driver takes their foot off the pedal. This gives the driver time to switch from the brake to the accelerator without worrying about the vehicle rolling backward.
