What does traction mean in BMW?
2 Answers
Refers to the car's traction, which is the ESP. It is the body electronic stability system that, under the action of the vehicle's computer ECU, detects unsafe factors and displays such a light, for example, when the car skids. The following is a specific introduction to BMW: 1. Introduction: BMW (Bavarian Motor Works), the full Chinese name is Bavarian Engine Manufacturing Co., Ltd., a German luxury car brand. BMW's car series include i, X, Z, and pure numbers 4 models, as well as series 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, etc., and the M series (BMW's official high-performance modification department) based on improvements to each series. BMW was founded in 1916, headquartered in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. The blue and white logo of BMW comes from the colors of the state flag of Bavaria, where BMW is headquartered. 2. Meaning of the logo: B.M.W. stands for Bavarian Motor Works, and the colors and combination of the logo come from the state emblem of Bavaria, where BMW is located.
I've been driving a BMW for a while and often experience its traction control system in slippery weather. 'traction BMW' actually refers to BMW's anti-slip technology. Simply put, the onboard computer constantly monitors wheel speed. Once it detects wheel slip—like on wet roads—it immediately intervenes by controlling brakes or reducing engine power to help maintain vehicle stability. I remember last time when starting on a muddy road, it automatically prevented my rear wheels from spinning, making the whole car less prone to skidding. This system is part of BMW's Dynamic Stability Control, with a small indicator light on the dashboard showing its status. New BMW drivers needn't worry—it makes driving easier and safer, especially reducing accident risks during snow or mountain curves. I recommend trying different driving modes to feel the differences—you'll notice how it quietly assists handling.
