    Thank you for that.

    I don't own one of those yet, but it's something important to know.

    It's a feature for all cars fitted with the EPB. So, it is now on all cars, other than the Defender.

    It's also worth noting that it'll also work, even with the accelerator down!

    FWIW - I wish I had this 20yrs ago when I had a driver colapse from a stroke, whilst at speed on a motorway!!!

    Works for me as I tried it on a gravel road with the foot hard on the accelerator. The car pulled up quickly and straight.
    A nice safety feature my wife now knows about.

    And it is also a hilarious feature to test.
    Especially if it is on a dirt track, private property in woop woop with someone else driving that hates Land Rover...

    But yes, a great safety feature also!

    It used to mentioned this in the FAQs ... may still be there ... but wasn't very informative.


    My idea of info is not take your new car on a gravel road and 'try' this (or words to that affect), without a bit more info on what actually happens.


    Thank you OP for starting this thread ... this level of info should be added to the FAQs.


    Cheers,


    Kev.
