What is Launch Control in the Kia ProCeed?

I have heard about Launch Control being a feature in the Kia ProCeed, but I am not sure what it actually does. Can someone explain it to me?

Launch Control is a feature in the Kia ProCeed which allows for smoother, faster, and more controlled acceleration. By engaging Launch Control, the car's system will help you to achieve the optimal launch for the fastest possible acceleration. This is especially useful for track driving or when wanting to show off your car's performance abilities.

When using Launch Control, make sure that the car is in 'sport' mode and the traction control is turned off. Then, simply press and hold the brake and accelerator pedals simultaneously until the Launch Control icon appears. Release the brake and the car will do the rest. Just be careful not to overuse this feature as it can put extra stress on the transmission and engine.

I recommend only using Launch Control when on a track or in a safe and controlled environment. It can be quite tempting to use it on the roads, but it can be dangerous and put unnecessary strain on your car. Plus, excessive launches can decrease the lifespan of your car's components.
