Is the handbrake of the Cadillac CT5 automatic?
2 Answers
Cadillac CT5 has an automatic handbrake, but it does not feature auto hold. Below are detailed introductions about the Cadillac CT5: Overview: The Cadillac CT5 is a mid-size car under the Cadillac brand, officially launched on November 18, 2019. The entire lineup has been iteratively upgraded with the new-generation Cadillac Mobile Internet Experience CUE and wireless CarPlay. The CT5 features a refreshed "Maple Red" exterior color. Others: In terms of body dimensions, the new car measures 4924/1883/1453 (1445) mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2947 mm. For power, the domestically produced Cadillac CT5 is equipped with a 2.0T variable cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 174 KW and a peak torque of 350 Nm.
Driving the Cadillac CT5, I find its parking brake is indeed automatic. When I park the car, it locks by itself, and when starting, a light press on the accelerator automatically releases it, making things very convenient. Unlike the old-fashioned handbrake that requires effort to pull the lever. This electronic parking brake design not only frees up space but also reduces the possibility of misoperation. If parked on a slope, it can automatically activate hill-start assist to prevent the car from rolling, providing a great sense of security. I often commute in the city, and at places with many traffic lights, it responds quickly without manual intervention. Of course, if the electronic system occasionally malfunctions, there will be a warning light, but the CT5's reliability is quite good—no issues in two years. Overall, this kind of intelligence makes driving easier and more efficient.
