ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System)

ABS (ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM)

SYSTEM COMPONENT





The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) controls the hydraulic brake pressure of all four wheels during sudden braking and braking on hazardous road surfaces, preventing the wheels from locking up. ABS provides the following benefits:
1. Enables steering around obstacles with a greater degree of certainty, even during emergency braking.
2. Enables stopping during emergency braking while keeping stability and steerability even on curves.
