The EBS (Electronically controlled Brake System) anti-locking disc-brake system provides both faster and safer braking response and promotes less brake wear. The system includes features such as ABS, anti-locking brakes and Brake Blending. With Brake Blending, the system exploits the vehicle’s various brakes for more uniform brake application and less wear on both the wheel brakes and tyres. The extended EBS medium package includes “Hill Hold”. ESP (ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM) Standard ESP helps maintaining directional stability (yaw control) in difficult conditions, and helps preventing rollover as well. HYDRAULIC RETARDER FOR AL306 AUTOMATIC GEARBOXES The compact, integrated hydraulic retarder (RET-HYDR and RET-TPT variants) is mounted on the gearbox. The max effect is 400 kW. Maximum ratio in the torque converter (TC418) is 1.98:1.
