What does it mean when dynamic traction control is activated?
1 Answers
Dynamic traction control being activated means that the system has engaged to regulate engine speed in order to control tire traction, preventing wheel slippage and enhancing driving safety. During this process, the electronic system manages the power output to the drive wheels. The traction control system prevents drive wheel spin, ensuring smooth vehicle acceleration while also improving driving stability and safety. When the traction control system is active, an indicator light on the dashboard will flash. The dynamic traction control system improves wheel slip tolerance, thereby increasing traction when driving on loose gravel or snowy surfaces. It is particularly effective on low-traction surfaces (such as wet or slippery roads) and also benefits high-powered vehicles or race cars during acceleration, providing more stable starts.
