If active, automatically move forward when the vehicle is rear-ended. Note: becoming less common. | |||||||
Only listed when pricing a single model because insufficient data for all cars. | |||||||

When a panic stop is sensed, fully applies the brakes. | |||||||
Ceramic composite front brake rotors. | |||||||
Warns of traffic coming from either direction when vehicle is in reverse, to prevent accidents when backing out of parking spaces. | |||||||
Applies the brakes to a slipping drive wheel to transfer torque to the other side, simulating the effect of a limited-slip differential. We haven't identified all applications, often implied by traction control. | |||||||

Two types: a warning light when a tire is low on air and a pressure readout for each tire. | |||||||
Uses the brakes to channel torque to the outside wheels and counteract understeer. Similar to stability control, but proactive, and acting to improve cornering performance rather than prevent loss of control. | |||||||
