If you don't push hard on brake pedal the hold won't engage.I ended up turning off auto-hold on my 2025 RB Ranger (NZ) because I prefer to be able to creep in traffic (when not using adaptive cruise). Then I use the electronic brake when I want to use “auto-hold” like waiting with my foot off the brake, and then just press the accelerator when I’m ready to go. The electronic brake is automatically released similar to auto-hold.
