Active Handling

Active Handling(tm) includes an additional level of control by EBTCM. Active Handling(tm) monitors Wheel Speed Sensors (WSS), lateral accelerometer, and Steering Wheel Position Sensor (SWPS) inputs to calculate a desired vehicle yaw rate. EBTCM then compares desired vehicle yaw rate with actual vehicle yaw rate supplied to EBTCM from yaw rate sensor. The difference between desired vehicle yaw rate and actual vehicle yaw rate is yaw rate error. Active Handling(tm) keeps yaw rate error to a minimum by selectively applying individual wheel brakes as necessary.
