What is the Chinese meaning of ESC?

ESC stands for Electronic Stability Control system in Chinese, which integrates three systems: ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), BAS (Brake Assist System), and ASR (Acceleration Slip Regulation), making it more powerful. Here is more information about ESC: 1. Introduction: The function of the ESC system is to monitor the driving state of the car. When understeer or oversteer occurs during emergency obstacle avoidance or turning, it helps the vehicle avoid deviating from the ideal trajectory. 2. Role of ESC: ESC mainly controls the longitudinal and lateral stability of the vehicle to ensure stable driving. For example, when a car oversteers while turning left on slippery roads (the tail swings to the right, and the sensor detects it as too sudden), ESC will quickly brake the right front wheel to restore traction, generating an opposite torque to keep the car in its original lane.
I heard from an experienced driver that ESC stands for Electronic Stability Control in Chinese. I remember when I first drove alone on a mountain road and almost slid out during a turn, fortunately, my car had this system which automatically adjusted the braking force to prevent skidding. It mainly works by using sensors to detect the vehicle's dynamics and intervenes at the moment of loss of control. I think it's especially important for beginners, significantly enhancing safety. Nowadays, most new cars come standard with ESC, and it feels like my guardian angel when driving in rain or snow. I was curious and looked up its history—it actually evolved from the ABS system but is smarter. In daily driving, I always check if the dashboard light is functioning properly to avoid any malfunctions affecting its performance. In short, ESC means Electronic Stability Control in Chinese, and it's definitely an indispensable safety feature in modern cars.
