Does the Audi A6L automatically engage the parking brake after stopping?

After setting the automatic parking brake, it will activate when stopping, but for safety reasons, it's still advisable to manually confirm it. Below is some relevant information about the Audi A6L: 1. Introduction: The Audi A6L is the first Audi model to enter the Chinese market, with its predecessor being the third-generation Audi 100 (code-named C3) introduced in 1988. The Audi A6L is a vehicle series developed by FAW-Volkswagen Audi based on the new German A6, serving as the successor to the A6. In June 2012, the new-generation Audi A6L was launched, equipped with the 35-TFSI powertrain, and its exterior design somewhat resembles the new version of the A4L. 2. Design: The new Audi A6L features a five-link front suspension design, balancing the necessary rigid connection for sportiness and comfort with lower static stiffness. Among these, the hydraulic frame damping support significantly enhances driving comfort, effectively reducing the impact and jolt when passing over speed bumps or uneven road surfaces, thereby minimizing the impact on the lumbar spine.
I often drive an Audi A6L, and when parking, it automatically engages the handbrake for me, which is a very thoughtful design. After parking, when I shift into P mode or turn off the engine, the vehicle detects it and activates the electronic parking brake system, immediately locking the wheels to prevent sliding. Once, I parked on a slope, and it activated without any manual input, saving me the trouble of manual operation. To enable this function, it is set by default, but if you want to adjust it, you can find the vehicle settings menu on the central control screen and check the automatic parking option. In daily driving, this feature is particularly useful in congested areas or during temporary stops, preventing the risk of rolling. In short, modern intelligent configurations make parking safer and more efficient, and once you get used to it, you won’t want to switch back to older cars.
