Hill-Start Assist Control

Multimedia

Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) [1] helps increase control during hill climbing, or stopping and starting on slippery surfaces. While stopped on an incline, a vehicle may roll back once the driver steps off the brake. HAC helps slow down the GX's slipping speed by gently applying the brakes.

[1]HAC is designed to help minimize backward rolling on steep ascents. It is not a substitute for safe driving judgment and practices. Factors including grade, surface conditions and driver input can all affect whether HAC will be effective in preventing a loss of control. Please see your Owner's Manual for further details.
