honestly, should have hill-assist.
program the braking module to hold on slopes until press accelerator pedal.

i guess they forgot malaysia (and the world) is not flat like a runway.

Its will be perfect if proton apply this feature!!

i see, so its normal for cvt gearbox...before this i was using manual car, this is my first AT car...thats why had doubt about this...

was travelling in the car yesterday with a friend, so when entering the car park, this situation happened...

Campro engine characteristic is totally different than Japan technology. Maybe we too use to Japan technology as old proton also Japanese engine. For CFE, it got accelerate assist (i dunno what it call) as it will auto accelerate a bit when u release the brake. Not sure for Executive Version. Anyway it is a totally different driving experience that we ever had.

TCS can brake the car automatically when it senses tire slip, ABS can 'un-brake' when it senses tire lock.
these two are normally the same module.

i don't see why it can't be implemented, unless the car has no sensor to detect slope.
has to sync with clutch timing, though.

Inspira is using torque converter CVT. Preve is clutch based. Hence the different characteristic.

that acceleration assist is called creep function. Its a feature on the CVT itself, not the engine. All Preve CVT variants gets it, Exec or Premium version.

If you have driven a Honda City (previous gen with CVT), you will know why creep function is important. That particular city doesn't have creep function and it makes parking the car the hardest thing in the world.

However, on slopes area, the creep function will automatically turn off if the TCU detects the slopes is too steep to prevent the clutch from frying. That is why it is IMPORTANT that no matter how steep is the slope, always climb it with the input of throttle even though on some minor upwards slope the car can still creep forward.

Exactly, after you start your engine you can pull the key out...
