    Here I thought everyone was just confusing "hill start assist" that the Mirage has with something else. Now, it's all clear as mud! Thanks Fummins!

    I heard it was an entry in ETACS under some other unpronounceable acronym.

    ETACS is Mitsubishi's unique system that controls all of the vehicle's electrical components including the headlights, door mirrors, windshield wipers, etc. It provides peace of mind and convenience and supports driving by controlling all of the vehicle's equipment precisely in a variety of situations.

    It's an honor to drive a vehicle with ETACS!

    Alrighty then. I stick by my theory of "it's physics/transfer of energy", but I shall quietly watch for another explanation. So far I like Fummins theory, but he hasn't explained where he got the 1.21 gigawatts from...
