What does EBD mean in Geely cars?
2 Answers
EBD in Geely cars refers to the Electronic Brakeforce Distribution system, with the full English name being Electric Brakeforce Distribution. Functions of EBD: The function of EBD is to instantly calculate the friction values of the four tires caused by different adhesion levels during vehicle braking, and then adjust the braking device to make high-speed adjustments according to the set program during motion, achieving a match between braking force and friction (traction) to ensure vehicle stability and safety. EBD is usually used in conjunction with ABS: In the event of emergency braking causing wheel lock-up, EBD balances the effective ground grip of each wheel before ABS activates, preventing tailspin and lateral movement, and shortening the vehicle's braking distance. EBD is actually an auxiliary function of ABS, which can improve and enhance the effectiveness of ABS.
Geely's EBD stands for Electronic Brake-force Distribution system, which essentially means it automatically adjusts the braking force on each wheel when you hit the brakes to prevent wheel lock-up or skidding, ensuring more stable and safer braking. This system typically works in conjunction with ABS, dynamically distributing force based on vehicle weight and road conditions. For example, during sharp turns or on slippery roads, EBD helps prevent skidding and fishtailing. In Geely vehicles, this is a standard feature, particularly emphasizing reliability in urban driving. Having driven for many years, I've found that if you feel uneven braking or hear unusual noises, it's best to visit a 4S shop to check the sensors and wiring, as dust or aging can affect EBD performance. Regular maintenance should include inspecting related components to ensure the system remains effective long-term, giving you peace of mind on the road.
