Dynamic Steering Torque (DST) System
The DST function uses the integration of the
ESC system with the electric power steering
to increase the safety level of the whole
vehicle.
In critical situations (braking on surfaces
with different grip conditions), the ESC
system controls the steering through the DST
function to implement an additional torque
contribution on the steering wheel in order to
suggest the most correct maneuver to the
driver.
The coordinated action of the brakes and
steering increases the sensation of safety
and control of the vehicle.
NOTE:
The DST feature is only meant to help the
driver realize the correct course of action
through small torques on the steering wheel,
which means the effectiveness of the DST
feature is highly dependent on the driver’s
sensitivity and overall reaction to the applied
torque. It is very important to realize that this
feature will not steer the vehicle, meaning
the driver is still responsible for steering the
vehicle.
Active Torque Vectoring (ATV) System —
Quadrifoglio Only
The dynamic drive control is used to opti -
mize and balance the drive torque between
the wheels of the same axles. The ATV
system improves the grip in turns, sending
more drive torque to the external wheel.
Given that, in a turn, the external wheels of
the car travel more than the internal ones
and therefore turn faster, sending a higher
thrust to the external rear wheel allows for
the car to be more stable and to not suffer an
"understeer" condition. Understeer occurs
when the vehicle is turning less than appro
-
priate for the steering wheel position.
AUXILIARY DRIVING
SYSTEMS
The following auxiliary driving systems are
available in this vehicle:

Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) — If
Equipped

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) — If
Equipped

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System — If
Equipped
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system
uses two radar sensors, located in the rear
bumper (one for each side), to detect the
presence of other vehicles in the rear side
blind spots of your vehicle.
Rear Sensor Location
The system warns the driver about the pres -
ence of other vehicles in the detection area
by illuminating the warning light located
within the door mirror on the side in which
the other vehicle was detected. If equipped,
an audible chime will also be heard to alert
the driver (if option is selected within the
Information and Entertainment System).
