What is the function of Audi ESC?

ESC in cars stands for Electronic Stability Control, which is a new type of active safety system for vehicles. It is a further extension of the functions of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Traction Control System (TCS). The following are specific details: 1. ESC performance: ESC consists of three main parts: sensors, the Electronic Control Unit (ECU), and actuators. It monitors the vehicle's operating status through the ECU and intervenes in the control of the vehicle's engine and braking system. 2. ESC function: ESC primarily controls the longitudinal and lateral stability of the vehicle, ensuring that the vehicle moves according to the driver's intentions. The foundation of the Electronic Stability Control system is the ABS anti-lock braking function. When the tires are about to lock up during braking, the system performs hundreds of braking actions per second, similar to mechanical intermittent braking.
When I drive my Audi, the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is the electronic stability control system that helps stabilize the car in critical moments. For example, when skidding during a turn on a rainy day and the car is about to spin out of control, the ESC automatically brakes a specific wheel or adjusts the engine power to restore balance. This feature originates from advanced safety technology in the 1990s, and now Audi has made it a standard feature, significantly reducing accidents. Statistics show that cars equipped with ESC have nearly 40% fewer accidents. I feel it silently protects me during high-speed or long-distance drives, especially when traveling with family, making the journey more secure and reliable. It works in tandem with the ABS system to form a safety net, requiring no manual intervention—intelligent and efficient, enhancing the overall driving experience.
