Off-Road Cruise Control
Off-road cruise control keeps a vehicle at a very low, steady speed over rough terrain, so the driver can focus on steering.
What is Off-Road Cruise Control?
It manages throttle and brakes automatically. Several speed settings are usually available. Different brands use their own names for the system. It is especially useful on steep, rocky descents and climbs.
How it works
The system controls engine power and brakes each wheel as needed to hold the chosen crawl speed.
Why it matters for your car
It can be noisy as the brakes work; this is normal. It does not replace choosing a safe line.
