 | | By sharing the same sensors as ABS, Acceleration Skid Control (ASR) automatically brakes any wheel that spins when you accelerate. This way, you re-grip the ground much quicker and are far more stable, whatever your speed.
The Electronic Stability Programme® (ESP®) supplements ASR with a number of additional sensors whose chief role is to evaluate any skidding movements, anticipate danger and then eliminate it. It does this by using engine torque and braking on individual wheels. ASR and ESP® come as standard on the S-Class Saloon.
Active Body Control (ABC) is available as an optional extra for the S 500 (standard on the S 600L and S 65 AMG). This system enables outstanding handling dynamics without compromising on comfort, thanks to a combination of active control and passive damping. |
