Top components such as Brembo
!
brakes, EBD and
sports ABS improve braking power and braking sta-
bility.
SPORTS ABS
•
4-wheel independent control optimizes the brake
force to each wheel to achieve a balance of
improved braking force and braking stability.
•
A steering angular velocity sensor was added to
monitor the steering angle status. Braking force is
altered in response to the steering status to
improve the quality of steering when braking in
corners.
•
The steering angular velocity sensor, lateral G-
sensor and longitudinal G-sensor accurately
monitor driving conditions and optimize ABS con-
trol to match the specific driving conditions.
EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution
system)
•
Rear brake power is electronically controlled to
optimize performance in accordance with road
and load conditions and to ensure optimal distri-
bution of braking force between the front and rear
brakes.
•
Rear brake fluid pressure control employs a
brake modulator hydraulic unit solenoid valve that
made it possible to eliminate the pressure control
valves (proportioning valves).
•
Effective use of rear wheel brake force reduces
temperature build-up in the front brakes under
hard braking conditions.
•
Independent control of the left and right rear
brakes when braking during cornering achieves a
balance of improved vehicle stability and braking
force.
