Electronic Stability Control System (ESC)

The electronic stability control system includes a Dynamic Stability Control System (SCS) and Traction Control System (TCS). SCS is designed to assist the driver in maintaining control and the driving direction. When SCS detects that the vehicle is not moving in the intended direction, it will intervene by applying brake force to selected wheels or through the power system to prevent sliding and stabilise the driving direction by correcting the under-steering or over-steering. TCS contributes to maintaining the control of the vehicle by improving the vehicle’s traction trafficability and driving stability. TCS monitors the driving speed of each wheel individually. If spin is detected on one wheel, the system automatically brakes that wheel, transferring torque to the opposite, non-spinning wheel. If the driving wheels are spinning, the system will reduce the output torque of the power system in order to regulate wheel rotation until traction is regained. Switching On/Off SCS and TCS are automatically enabled. In the Driving Settings interface of the central screen, click the ESC button to enable SCS and TCS. Note: Disabling SCS and TCS will not affect the normal operation of ABS. Always disable SCS and TCS when driving with anti-skid chains or snow chains fitted.
