Hill assist

[noname]

Mache manual talks about hill assist. If I stop on the hill car starts rolling back unless brake-hold is active. If you are on the hill and let the throttle off, car will roll back as well. Is it by design?

Yes. You have an option of brake hold or not.

Basically, yes. However, it is more than just hill assist. It works at any stop.

brake-hold or not it rolls back if you let the throttle off. My ICE car just stops and would not roll back if there is not enough throttle

Press the brake pedal to engage auto-hold. Then you can take your foot off the pedal and you won’t roll.

My understanding is that Hill Start Assist is different from Auto Hold.

Hill Start assist is activated when the car detects itself is on a slope.

Auto hold is different. It will hold the car every time you stop the vehicle.
