Operation Characteristics
Intelligent trace control helps enhance the transition from braking into and then accelerating out of corners. Intelligent trace control utilizes the vehicle's electrically-driven intelligent brake system to help improve cornering feel by automatically applying brakes. Furthermore, intelligent trace control will apply selective braking to help create increased steering response in S-turns. For example, if driving through an S-turn that starts with steering to the right, the right-side brakes are engaged to create a yaw momentum and help turn the vehicle.
- Brake control amount is controlled according to steering operation status by the driver and vehicle cornering status.
- During cornering, the brake control system limits changes in steering angle by controlling the inner ring brakes according to accelerator pedal operation and allows smooth movement of the vehicle to achieve stable cornering.
