W169 A-class Auto - Creep question,

[gadgetgricey1971]

Looking at a A-Class 08 plate as a car, but aware these have a CVT gearbox.
Have looked on google with no success, but wondered if anyone knows if these do "creep" like a normal torque convertor.
Or does it just stay still until throttle, or roll back.

Aware would find out on a test drive, but this is an important factor for our decision, so dont want to waste sellers time if does roll back.

Thanks again

Don't know about the A Class but have owned a few CVT cars (currently a 2021 Subaru Outback) and yes, they've all had transmission creep as regular autos. I'd assume that newer vehicles have some sort of hill hold function too but at the very least a CVT will hold the car on a not too steep incline.

I have two cvts and they creep exactly as an auto does
But it’s still worth the test drive
