Maximum braking force
– when you need it
Countless studies have shown that in full-braking situations, the optimum braking force is not always applied. Even the most experienced drivers apply the brakes too slowly, too quickly or too softly in these situations – resulting in longer braking distances. The Brake Assist System (BAS) recognises such situations and automatically applies the maximum braking force in a fraction of a second. BAS, with its highly affective brake management, significantly reduces your stopping distance. And this can be decisive when you need to stop as quickly as possible.
