Vehicle Stability Assist (Vsa) System - Honda CITY Hybrid 2021 Manual

Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System

VSA helps to stabilise the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less
than what was intended. It also assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces.
It does so by regulating engine and motor output and selectively applying the
brakes.

The VSA may not function properly if tyre type and
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and
type of tyre, and the air pressures as specified.
When the VSA system indicator comes on and stays
on while driving, there may be a problem with the
system. While this may not interfere with normal
driving, have your vehicle checked by a dealer
immediately.
VSA cannot enhance stability in all driving situations
and does not control the entire braking system. You
still need to drive and corner at speeds appropriate
for the conditions and always leave a sufficient
margin of safety.
The main function of the VSA system is generally
known as Electronic Stability Control (ESC). The
system also includes a traction control function.
