What are Grip Control and Hill Start Descent Control on Citroen vehicles?

Model: Citroen Citroen Various
Part: Onboard computer

Grip Control and Hill Assist Descent are two innovative technologies introduced by Citroen to improve traction on slippery terrain and slopes. Grip Control is a traction control system that optimizes the grip of the front wheels, adapting to different types of terrain: it continuously analyzes the grip of the wheels and adjusts the torque sent to each wheel to ensure maximum traction possible. On the other hand, Hill Assist Descent is a driving assistance system that automatically maintains a low speed of the vehicle when descending steep slopes. It works by using the brakes to maintain a constant speed, preventing the vehicle from accelerating uncontrollably. These two technologies offer greater safety and comfort.
