What does the Buick Excelle 6-speed DSS intelligent start-stop transmission mean?

It refers to the system that controls the engine start and stop. Here is more related information: How the start-stop system works: 1. The working principle of the start-stop system is that when the vehicle stops moving due to congestion or at an intersection, the driver presses the brake pedal and shifts to neutral. At this time, the Start/Stop system automatically detects: the engine is idling and not in gear; the wheel speed sensor of the locking system shows zero; the electronic battery sensor shows there is enough energy for the next start. 2. After these three conditions are met, the engine automatically stops running. When the traffic light turns green, the driver presses the clutch, and then can activate the "start-stop device" to quickly start the engine. In automatic transmission models, as soon as the brake is released or the steering wheel is turned, the engine will automatically ignite immediately, and the driver can step on the accelerator to start, with the whole process remaining in D gear.
