System ensuring that your tyres run at peak performance.
The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) reduces braking distances by up to 20 percent on loose surfaces, and in the case of a collision, the Multi-collision Brake System automatically activates to help prevent subsequent crashes by employing the ESP to brake the vehicle and slow it down to a defined minimum speed within the driving dynamic limits. Distinctive LED tail lights have a faster response time, allowing other road users to see the light-emitting diodes quicker, which can help reduce stopping distance.
