What does ESP mean?
1 Answers
ESP refers to the Electronic Stability Program, a general term for systems or programs designed to enhance vehicle handling performance while effectively preventing loss of control when the vehicle reaches its dynamic limits. ESP includes functions such as Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Traction Control System (TCS), and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC). The principle of ESP is: through the ABS electronic control unit, based on signals from the wheel speed sensors, the system calculates and analyzes to determine the wheel slip rate and vehicle speed. The electronic control unit then adjusts the wheel slip rate by controlling the throttle opening and brake pressure.
