Does the 2024 Ranger have Auto-Hold?

For every day commuting I would prefer these items shut off. I could see the usefulness on long road trips. Adaptive cruise control and the other technologies would be useful for fatigue.

I've heard of hill assist. I've never heard of 'auto hold'. Does it automatically keep the brakes engaged until you press the accelerator? We're not talking about hill assist are we?

Yeah, Auto Hold uses the electronic e-brake (I think) when you come to a complete stop. It just stays engaged until you press the accelerator.

I am inclined to believe it has it specifically because they offer adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go. That essentially slows your vehicle and holds until the traffic moves again.

That makes sense. 5G Rangers don't have electronic parking brakes.

I don't see any mention of this in the order guide but that doesn't mean it's not included.

I assume there isn't an owners manual released yet, right?

I believe it’s included if you have CoPilot 360

this . my maverick has it

Unlikely. Maybe the Aussie manual mentions it if you can get your hands on one?

But this isn’t going to help since we already know the AUS version has it. We need to find out for NA.

Ah, my bad. Should have read through all the responses.

I was actually wondering the same thing. My '21 F150 has it and I got so used to it that when I drive my other cars I realize how handy it is. Not a dealbreaker but I would like to have it on the Ranger.

My South African Raptor (Built in Thailand) has Auto Hold as standard equipment. (But then again, all available options are standard on the SA models, apart from the trailer brake controller and intelligent adaptive cruise control - only "normal" ACC.)
