ABSTRACT:
A control module including a traffic determination module that determines when a vehicle is in traffic and that selectively generates a traffic signal. The control module also having a creep enable module that generates a creep enable signal based on the traffic signal. The control module further including a power control module that selectively generates an internal combustion engine (ICE) disable signal. The power control module also commands a motor generator unit to produce power based on the creep enable signal as a driver reduces brake pedal pressure.
