ASC: Automatic Stability Control
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 Automatic Stability Control (ASC) uses brake and engine interventions to prevent the wheels from spinning on accelerating. Advantage: More traction and better driving stability. If the wheels on the driven axle have different levels of adhesion, the wheel with the tendency to spin is braked (μ-split). If necessary, the engine performance is also reduced.
