Operation Characteristics

VDC Function That Prevents Oversteer Tendency 

• During a cornering, brake force (brake fluid pressure) is applied on front wheel and rear wheel on the outer side of turn. Momentum directing towards the outer side of turn is generated. Oversteer is prevented.

• Changing driving lane on a slippery road, when oversteer tendency is judged large, motor torque is controlled as well as brake force (brake fluid pressure) of 4 wheels. Oversteer tendency decreases.

VDC Function That Prevents Understeer Tendency 

• During a cornering, brake force (brake fluid pressure) is applied on front wheel and rear wheel on the inner side of turn. Momentum directing towards the inner side of turn is generated. Understeer is prevented.

• Applying braking during a cornering on a slippery road, when understeer tendency is judged large, motor torque is controlled as well as brake force (brake fluid pressure) of four wheels. Understeer tendency decreases.
