DCC (Dynamic Stability Control) of BMW

DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) of BMW. With the ABS and ASC + T, improved behavior in curves. Corrects the path in the event of understeer or oversteer. Equals ESP. BMW xDrive is BMW's four-wheel drive system that powers the X3, X5 and 2006 and later xd and xi 3 Series and 5 Series models.

Instead of a 60-40 (rear-front) power split (which all millennium four-wheel drive BMW's exhibit — 325xi, 330xi, early X5) with power being cut to wheels which lost traction through DSC (Dynamic Stability Control), xDrive allowed both of these vehicles to split power between the front and rear axles through use of a multiplate clutch located between the gearbox and the Cardian shaft. This setup allowed xDrive vehicles to split power in virtually any way it pleased. If the car felt like it was in a threatening situation (note not an unstable one), xDrive would react immediately, often before the driver ever knew of its intervention, to alleviate traction and control of the vehicle.

xDrive is also closely knit with DSC. In the case that wheelspin still occurs while xDrive is or has been shifting power, DSC can brake independent wheels to regain traction. xDrive also helps in cornering. When the vehicle senses that it was about to understeer or oversteer the vehicle can independently cut traction to either of the front wheels or rear wheels to help regain stability and keep the driver on the road.

xDrive was one of the first technologies used to intervene before the driver was aware that the car was becoming or would become unstable. Its intervention is transparent to the driver.

  • Cornering Brake Control is a braking control system which is an evolution on the classic electronic brake distribution. When it slows to force a curve in the system administered independently of the braking pressure applied to each wheel. The goal is to avoid blocking any wheel and better management response while reducing the area of braking on slippery surfaces.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) technology improves upon the function of standard cruise control by automatically adjusting the vehicle speed and distance to that of a target vehicle.
