CBC SYSTEM (Cornering Brake
Control)
This function improves the distribution of the braking pressure at the
four wheels (to fully exploit the grip available on the ground) when
braking on bends if the ABS intervenes. This improves stopping
distances and above all vehicle stability when cornering.
“ELECTRONIC Q2” SYSTEM (“E-Q2”)
The “Electronic Q2” system uses the braking system to create an effect
similar to a limited slip differential.
The front braking system, in cornering acceleration conditions, acts
appropriately on the inner wheel, increasing the drive of the outer
wheel (with more load) and sharing the torque between the front drive
wheels dynamically and continuously according to the driving
conditions and the road surface.
The system, combined with MacPherson front suspension, allows
particularly effective and sports driving.
DST SYSTEM (Dynamic Steering
Torque)
This function integrates Dual Pinion active steering into the operation of
the VDC. For particular manoeuvres, the VDC controls the steering to
actuate a steering torque and assist the driver in the best possible way.
The system operates the brakes and steering in a coordinated manner
to increase the suspension and safety level of the car as a whole.
The steering provides additional torque on the steering wheel.
