Kia Stinger ESC Electronic Stability Control

[Kia Stinger News]

All Kia Stinger trims come equipped with the Electronic Stability Control (ESC). This computerized technology plays an important role in improving a Kia's stability by detecting and reducing skidding (loss of traction) while driving on tricky surfaces. The ECS uses sensors for detecting loss of steering control. To help "steer" the vehicle back in control, the system automatically applies the brakes to each individual wheel. For instance, brakes are applied at the inner rear wheels to counter under-steering conditions and outer front wheels to counter over-steering. Kia's ESC system may also reduce engine power until complete control is regained, guaranteeing the utmost level of safety.
