ESP is a positive safety feature that provides computer intervention when a driver pushes a car into a corner (or similar manoeuvre) at a speed that exceeds the vehicles cornering or handling capabilities. By monitoring steering wheel angle and speed, the technology makes turning and cornering safer, and if skidding occurs, applies brake pressure to individual wheels as well as reducing engine power if needed. Partnering with Bosch, this technology was introduced to HSV as "Electronic Stability Control".
