Brake Evaluation

Brake Evaluation

Using the same evaluation method as kick-fast, brake evaluation provides driver type information. Overrun downshifts are triggered at various high speeds depending on the braking requirement.

The vehicle deceleration is determined by the change in the speed proportional signals (wheel speeds or transmission output speed) or the braking pressure in the brake system. The shift speed for the individual downshifts (determined from one of the characteristic curves), depends on the set drive mode, the initial speed at the start of braking and the determined deceleration or brake pressure.
