Why do I need ESC?

At least 40% of fatal road accidents are the result of skidding. Studies show that ESC could reduce skidding accidents by up to 80 %.

Every day when driving you encounter a multitude of possible skidding situations:

• a child suddenly runs into the road.
• the door of a parked car suddenly opens,
• or a car suddenly changes lanes, ……

It is when you are taken by surprise, facing the unexpected, that the danger is greatest. Suddenly you need to take avoiding action …. you lose control of your car …. and your car goes into a skid. That’s when ESC can come to the rescue!

ESC becomes active when a driver loses control of the vehicle. ESC identifies the risk of a skid at an early stage and uses the vehicle’s brakes to steer the vehicle safely back on track.
