Stability Control System
|
| Name |
Second-Generation Active Handing
|
| Function |
Works with Corvette’s ABS and Traction Control systems to assist the driver in keeping the car stable and balanced in emergency or spirited driving conditions - on wet or dry surfaces.(4) Carefully calibrated to avoid unwanted intrusion into thedriving experience.
|
| Special Componentry |
Brake pressure modulator, steering wheel angle sensor, lateral accelerometer, and unique core software algorithms.
|
|
2001 Improvements
|
Active Handling is now standard on
all Corvette models
|
|
New lighter-weight Bosch 5.3 pressure modulator provides better overall response and improved pressure apply times in cold weather.
|
|
Electronic rear proportioning algorithm eliminates rear brake proportioning valve.
|
|
New algorithms for more precise, less intrusive control of sideslip angle rate, rear brake stability and wheelspin.
|
|
The unique-to-Corvette Competitive Mode may now be activated without bringing the car to a stop
|
| (4) A Note of Caution: The overall effectiveness of the Corvette Active handling System is directly related to available tire traction and the aggressiveness of a given maneuver. Active Handling is designed to use existing traction to assist the driver - but it cannot overcome the laws of physics. Please drive responsibly. |
