A bit long winded but another angle on using an automatic, he calls the DSG a Robotised-Gearbox.

Which they are,  The Twin Dry Clutch or Single Dry.  Citig has the ASG.      VW Group show the DSG,s as S-A  / Semi-automated. 

There are s-tronic Audi,s that had CVT, there are 7 Speed Twin Dry and 6 or 7 speed wet and actual Automatic Audi,s.

 

(VW Group 1.4 tsi,s in other world regions with 8 speed TC Automatics.)

 

Manual Hand Brake.  Then that bottom vid.  Manual Parking brake / Hand Brake.   (A e-Brake surely is a finger brake is ir not?)

 

The big differences,

important things now.   Tech moves on.

 

If no Hand Brake / Parking brake, Manual,  then e-Brake / Parking brake, 

then Auto Hold, enabled or not enabled.

Foot off brake pedal once Auto Hold enabled,  as ling as Auto Hold has not been turned off.   Then Stop / Start Enabled or not enabled. Switched off. 

 

As to EV,s.  Not all have e-Brakes that Automatically come on, or have Autohold.

 

EDIT. PS

Then those that have 'Coasting function' might have it enabled, or possible not.

Watch VW Vids on that.   Then 1.5 TSI ACT,s.  cylinder deactivation.  ECO, Coasting, Autohold or no autohold. 

DQ200,s all Dry Twin clutch DSG,s but not all models of Skoda have the same choice maybe of 'modes'.

Then there are differences away from a Fabia with Wet Clutch DSG,s & Modes.

6 or 7 speed wet clutch, nearly all now with e-Brakes.

 

1.0 TSI, Mild Hybrids a 7 speed DQ200-e.   1.5 TSI PHEV,s a 6 speed wet Clutch DQ400-e.
