ABS: Antilock braking system
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The antilock braking system (ABS) prevents the wheels from blocking on braking. Advantage: short stopping distance, the direction of the vehicle remains stable and the vehicle can be steered. The brake pressure on all wheels is regulated in such a way that each wheel runs in an optimized slip range. Here, the slip is regulated in such a way that the highest possible braking and cornering forces can be transferred.
