2.5.6. Auxiliary systems

ASC+T/DSC

Sensors on wheels determine their angular speeds. On this basis the control system draws a conclusion about pro-slipping of driving wheels. Depending on road conditions two mechanisms of adjustment are used. At big surplus of power and, therefore, pro-slipping of driving wheels the torque of the engine goes down. In addition to it and without intervention of the driver the automatic podtormazhivaniye of the slipping driving wheel is made. Thereby the effect, comparable with effect of adjustable self-locking differential is reached. The similar podtormazhivaniye is possible at a speed up to 40 km/h. At a speed over 40 km/h, but no more than 100 km/h for increase in force of draft are used a podtormazhivaniye of smaller intensity.

EDC

The regulator installed on the back bridge provides a constant road gleam at any loading of the car.

For this purpose on the back bridge instead of ordinary shock-absorbers and steel springs pneumatic depreciation racks are established. The electronic control system determines by two sensors the actual height of a body over the road and if necessary connects the compressor which is pumping up compressed air in racks.

Thanks to increase in pressure at increase in loading the regulator not only provides a constant road gleam, but also comfortable depreciation at the movement irrespective of loading of the car.
