Kick-down is the function of downshifting the automatic transmission. When the accelerator pedal is fully depressed, the control unit will command the gears to downshift to the lowest possible gear, thereby increasing the speed of the internal combustion engine in order to obtain the best possible engine performance. The driver will use this function, for example, when overtaking or accelerating hard.
