What is the Hill Start Assist function in cars?

[LeAiden]

Here is the relevant information about the Hill Start Assist function in cars: 1. Hill Start Assist, also known as Hill-start Assist Control, is designed to prevent difficulty when starting on an uphill slope. It temporarily applies brakes to all four wheels (for a maximum of about 3 seconds) to prevent the vehicle from rolling backward. 2. Equipped with Hill Start Assist Control, it prevents the vehicle from rolling backward, allowing the driver to start the car easily and operate the pedals with ease. 3. When the vehicle's gear is not in the P position, firmly pressing the brake will activate the Hill Start Assist system (a sound will be heard), and the brake lights will illuminate as the system automatically generates braking force.
