The 'hold' on the car refers to the Auto Hold function. The introduction and working principle of the Auto Hold function are as follows. Introduction to Auto Hold: Auto Hold is an automatic braking function. After activating this function, for example, when stopping at a traffic light, there is no need to pull the handbrake, simplifying operations by avoiding the use of the handbrake or electronic parking brake. For automatic transmission models, it also eliminates the need for frequent switching between D to N or D to P. Auto Hold Working Principle: The Auto Hold function provides precise parking force through a slope sensor controlled by the system. During startup, the parking control unit calculates information from sensors such as the clutch distance sensor, clutch engagement speed sensor, and throttle pedal sensor. When the driving force exceeds the running resistance, the parking brake is automatically released, allowing the car to start smoothly.
