Safe Acceleration and Enhanced Driving Stability.

Among the countless dangers motorists have to contend with are wet, slippery roads where a vehicle can unexpectedly go into a skid. This can happen when accelerating and can make steering or controlling the vehicle nearly impossible. The Traction Control System (TCS) can help in a dangerous situation like this by preventing the wheels from spinning. The system can also improve vehicle acceleration.

Sensors tell the Traction Control System if a wheel is spinning. If this occurs when a vehicle is travelling at low speed, only the spinning wheel is braked. At a higher speed, engine output is throttled until all the wheels regain their grip. A light on the instrument panel indicates that TCS is active.

In addition to contributing to an improvement in driving stability and safe acceleration, TCS also reduces tire abrasion. TCS was initially presented to the public in 1990 and is offered today as a standard feature on many vehicles.
