What does the ESP system mean?
1 Answers
Automotive ESP stands for Electronic Stability Program, which is 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. Below is an introduction to ESP: 1. Function: Monitors the vehicle's driving status and prevents the vehicle from deviating from the ideal trajectory when understeer or oversteer occurs during emergency obstacle avoidance or turning. 2. Composition: Consists of a control unit and steering sensor (monitoring the steering angle of the steering wheel), wheel sensor (monitoring the speed of each wheel), yaw sensor (monitoring the state of the vehicle rotating around the vertical axis), and lateral acceleration sensor (monitoring the centrifugal force during vehicle turning), among others.
