Load Adaptive Control
Load Adaptive Control

The volume and position of a commercial vehicle's load can vary considerably from trip to trip. The load has an important impact on the braking, the traction, the cornering ability and the roll-over tendency. The ESP® value-added function Load Adaptive Control identifies changes in the vehicle mass and centre of gravity along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle and adapts the interventions of the safety systems ABS, TCS and ESP® to the vehicle load. In this way, Load Adaptive Control optimises braking effectiveness, traction and stability. In addition, it reduces the risk of roll over via the improved utilisation of Roll Over Mitigation and minimises brake-pad wear by optimising the distribution of braking forces.
