Optimum intervention in critical situations
Braking on uncertain surfaces is just one situation that puts a high demand on both drivers and vehicle technology. ESP®, the Electronic Stability Program, comes as standard in your van to help you keep your grip on the road. If, for example, a wheel starts to spin or is about to skid, then sensors recognise the first signs of a potentially uncontrolled situation. Active motor management and electronic brake force distribution (EBV) then apply specific braking forces to individual wheels in order to stabilise the vehicle. ESP® prevents the vehicle under or over steering in critical situations, thereby noticeably improving both the traction and driving stability. It combines the functions of ABS, ASR and BAS, to which it also adds a stability aid.
