Parking lock

The parking lock blocks the transmission output shaft. The vehicle is secured against rolling away. The parking lock is designed in such a way that on upward or downward inclines of up to 32 % a secure hold is always ensured.

The parking lock is engaged purely mechanically with the vehicle stationary using the selector lever (Bowden cable from selector lever to the mechatronics module).
