How VSC Works



The system helps to ensure stable cornering performance through the operation of the VSC actuator that provides braking control, and the throttle actuator that controls the engine output. Based on signals from the various sensors, such as the yaw rate sensor and the G sensor, the ECU determines if the vehicle is understeering or oversteering and outputs control signals to the actuators. These actuators then decrease the engine output and/or apply the brake(s) to the front or rear wheel(s) to reduce the vehicle’s yaw moment.
