| 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.(2) 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 |
| (2)
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. |
