Some cars have a hill start assist feature that engages and stays on when you come to a stop, releasing automatically when you drive off.
The XC40 has one of these, as did in the V60 - in the V60 it was seamless, the XC40's HS thing is very good, but linked to the rough electronic parking brake is poor. Still it does work as advertised in the handbook !
The annoying features of the XC40 are all the blind-spots caused by the massive A and C pillars. I know their there to stop me being squashed in an accident,, but you know.
