    When the car is driving, it is subjected to lateral and longitudinal forces, and when the lateral force is too large, the handling force is reduced a lot, and it is easy to lose control. ESP improves this, when the vehicle is unstable, based on the CPU calculation, the electronic power assist system can independently brake each wheel and participate in the management of the engine system to ensure the safety of driving.
