Oh man !!! Where's the fun in that
What's the new Hill Start Assist toy going to do for us then - answer a question that's not been asked yet? I've never had a problem with the manual, using low range when required, even towing an 1800Kg tintent.

They aren't imaginery, but whether they are actually useful is an entirely different question. In reality just more wizardry from the Hogwarts school of vehicle design, that probably won't be used by most drivers.

More useless stuff to go wrong in other words! Like the piggin EPB, why use something that is simple & reliable when you can charge a fortune for something that is complicated and unreliable, unless it's to keep the stealers in bread & dripping!
