What is the Difference Between Auto Hold and Automatic Parking?
1 Answers
Auto Hold and Automatic Parking differ as follows: 1. Positioning: One is for automatic parking into a space; the other is for an automatic handbrake. The Automatic Parking System refers to a system that can park the car without human intervention. The Auto Hold System (AUTO-HOLD) is a technical application that enables an automatic handbrake while the car is in operation. 2. Function: The Auto Hold function prevents the vehicle from rolling backward, especially useful on slopes and during frequent starts and stops. The Auto Hold System and the Electronic Parking Brake (EPB: Electrical-Park-Brake, technical name: Electromechanical Parking Brake) can together form an intelligent braking control system, integrating temporary braking during driving and long-term braking after parking, all controlled electronically. 3. Principle: The Electronic Parking Brake achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both using the friction between the brake disc and brake pads to control parking braking, except that the control method changes from a mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. In terms of functionality, the braking control system extends from the basic parking function to the Auto Hold function.
