When purchasing a new car, buyers often focus on aspects like mileage and safety features. However, safety features encompass much more than just airbags. One such important feature is Hill Hold Control (also known as Hill Hold Assist), which plays a crucial role in enhancing driving safety, especially in hilly areas. Here’s a comprehensive guide to understanding this feature and its benefits.
Hill Hold Control is a system designed to assist drivers in hilly terrains and prevent the car from rolling backward. This feature is particularly useful when driving on inclines or flyovers. If you find yourself stuck in traffic on a slope and need to move forward once the traffic clears, Hill Hold Control helps prevent the vehicle from sliding backward.
How It Works: When you release the brake pedal on a slope, the Hill Hold Control system temporarily maintains brake pressure for a few seconds. This prevents the car from rolling back. Once you press the accelerator, the system releases the brake pressure, allowing the vehicle to move forward smoothly.
For those looking for cars equipped with Hill Hold Control within a budget of ₹10 lakhs, several options are available:
- Maruti Suzuki Swift
- Renault Kiger
- Tata Nexon
- Hyundai Venue
