Getting across the difficult stretches of rough terrain is made easy by ŠKODA Offroad mode, which combines several functions. When the Offroad mode is selected, the ECU adapts the response of the throttle and brake assist systems.
The Hill-hold assistant helps drivers when starting up the hill. For better acceleration on soft or slippery surfaces, the ASR system allows for more wheelspin.The Electronic Differential Lock (EDL) has quicker and more intensive responses in the Offroad mode.
The Descent assistant keeps constant speed by braking the wheels. This allows drivers to focus completely on the driving and choosing the right path. To enhance braking, the ABS settings are changed to facilitate the wedge effect – braked wheel is kept locked for a longer time, so it forms a wedge of the material in front of itself.
