Agile Handling Assist

Improves response during hard cornering, using the brakes to create a yaw moment (turning motion) as the vehicle approaches handling limits.

  • Agile Handling Assist®46 acts earlier than conventional VSA®10 for more agility in everyday driving conditions.
  • Agile Handling Assist brakes the wheels independently, which is effective at all speeds – even in parking lot maneuvers.
