I'm assuming the standard driving profile imitates an automatic transmission with a torque converter, which continually creeps forward if the brake isn't held down. As opposed to a manual or dual-clutch automatic transmission, which does not creep (except by gravity).
Is disabling this "creep" independently of braking with the gas pedal an option in any electric vehicles? I seem to remember that some cars with continuously variable transmissions had this as an option.
- vel0city 4y agoThere is still often an "Auto Hold" feature that will engage the brake when the vehicle comes to a complete stop. My EV can have auto hold engaged while not being in the single pedal drive. I have this in my ICE as well, but it doesn't seem as smooth overall, so I don't end up using it much. It is still not quite the same experience though, as the ICE will just keep rolling at low speeds forever without actually ever coming to a stop until you press the brake. Auto hold will only engage when the vehicle actually stops. For my EV, when I get off the accelerator pedal it'll come to a complete stop on its own and then hold itself there. Other than turning on my EV, most trips don't involve me touching the brake pedal at all.
