Does the Geely GS have ESP?
2 Answers
Geely GS is equipped with an ESP system. The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is standard across all models. ESP typically requires the installation of steering sensors, wheel sensors, skid sensors, lateral acceleration sensors, etc. Here is some relevant information: 1. ESP refers to the Electronic Stability Program, a patented technology by Bosch. The ESP system is essentially a traction control system, but unlike other traction control systems, ESP controls not only the drive wheels but also the driven wheels. 2. The function of ESP is to automatically intervene and correct the driver's actions when the vehicle exceeds its limits. The system controls the vehicle's movement in two ways: (1) by reducing throttle input to decrease engine power and slow down the vehicle, and (2) by applying brakes to certain wheels to reduce the vehicle's speed back within safe limits. 3. With ESP intervention, the system automatically manages throttle and braking, resulting in more controlled and stable driving. It makes it difficult to perform skids, oversteer, or even drifting maneuvers.
The Geely Emgrand GS, as a popular model under the Geely brand, indeed comes equipped with an ESP system in many versions, especially for models post-2017 and higher-end configurations. I consider ESP a crucial safety feature that prevents loss of control during emergency steering or on slippery roads, significantly reducing accident risks. When purchasing a car, it's advisable to check the specific year and configuration list—base models might not include ESP, but higher trims like the GS Pro often have it as standard. I recommend directly contacting the dealer or reviewing the vehicle manual for confirmation, and don’t forget to test the system’s response while in operation. Safe driving habits combined with ESP can make city commutes and highway driving more reassuring, as protecting yourself and your family is ultimately more important than saving money.
