Electronic Stability Control
When you drive you should, of course, always pay attention. When
you drive a FIAT
®
500, the car also pays attention. Electronic Stability
Control
(4)
is designed to assist drivers in monitoring control of their
vehicles during extreme steering maneuvers. ESC senses when a
vehicle is starting to spin or plow and attempts to correct the vehicle’s
course by automatically controlling the throttle and applying the brakes
at individual wheels.
