Dynamic Stability Control
DSC
Principle
The system reduces engine output and applies
the brakes on individual wheels, helping, within
the limits imposed by the laws of physics, to
keep the vehicle safely on course.
General
DSC detects the following unstable driving
conditions, for example:
▷ Loss of traction at the rear which can lead
to oversteer.
▷ Loss of grip of the front wheels which can
lead to understeer.
