Braking Control

For the purpose of improving the feeling of effectiveness of the brake when decelerating, the brake operation amount of the driver is computed by the chassis control module and a command is transmitted to TCM.
Based on the command from the chassis control module, TCM shifts the gear ratio of the transaxle to the low side and applies the engine brake.
