Technical glossary
Active dynamics control
A system that allows the driver to change the
handling and performance characteristics of the
vehicle.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) automatically
adjusts the vehicle speed to maintain a set
distance from vehicles in the lane ahead.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
The ABS prevents the wheels from locking when
you brake. This allows the vehicle to be steered
during braking manoeuvres.
Auto High Beam Assist
The Auto High Beam Assist feature automatically
activates the high beam headlamps when traffic
and environmental conditions allow. The feature
automatically deactivates the main beam
headlamps when required due to environmental
conditions and to avoid glaring other road users.
Automatic driver recognition cards
A card which must be on the person entering the
vehicle or the tracker system signals that the
vehicle is being moved without authorisation.
Brake assist system
The brake assist system operates in emergency
braking situations. If you depress the brake pedal
quickly, the brake assist system automatically
increases the force being applied to the brakes
and thus shortens the stopping distance.
Brake disc wiping
Brake disc wiping operates when the windscreen
wipers are switched on. It prevents moisture
build up on the brake discs during periods of
heavy rain, by applying the brakes momentarily,
so that the pads touch the discs.
Brake steer
Brake steer offers the benefits of a torque
vectoring differential, but is integrated into the
braking system reducing weight and providing
excellent speed of response.
If the system detects that the vehicle is starting
to understeer through a corner, the inside rear
brake is gently applied. This helps to increase the
yaw rate of the vehicle, making the vehicle feel
more resistant to understeer. The lateral ‘g’ force
is also increased giving better handling
characteristics.
If the driver uses too much throttle exiting a
corner, the inside rear wheel increases speed,
which without brake steer could cause the
vehicle to become unstable. In this situation,
brake steer will again gently apply the brake on
the inside rear wheel, thereby restoring traction
and stability.
Cylinder cut
Cylinder cut operates during automatic upshifts
in Sport and Track powertrain modes and manual
upshifts in Comfort powertrain mode.
When calling for an upshift under hard
acceleration, fuel is interrupted (cut) in a defined
number of engine cylinders. This rapidly decrease
the engine torque and engine speed, allowing
faster upshifts to be achieved. This will make the
upshift more audibly noticeable than a normal
upshift.
