Electronic stability control

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) helps the driver to avoid skidding and improves the car's traction.

Symbols and messages for electronic stability control

A number of symbols and messages regarding electronic stability control (ESC) can be shown on the driver display. Here are some examples.

Electronic Stability Control in sport mode

The stability system (ESC) is always activated – it cannot be switched off. However, the driver can select ECS Sport mode, which allows for a more active driving experience.

Activating and deactivating sport mode for electronic stability control

The stability system (ESC) is always activated – it cannot be switched off. However, the driver can select sport mode, which allows for a more active driving experience. With sport mode selected, interventions from the ESC system are reduced and the car is allowed to skid more and greater control than normal is thus transferred to the driver.
