TORQUE VECTORING
XE's Torque Vectoring by braking maximises capability through even the tightest of corners.
Torque Vectoring technology provides controlled independent braking on the individual
inside front and rear wheels to add to the turning forces acting on the car. In most conditions
more braking pressure is applied to the rear inside wheel as this supports the most increased
cornering capability, while the front inside wheel is braked for greater effectiveness and
refinement. The result is reduced understeer for sharper turning and more consistent road
holding. Torque Vectoring delivers increased sports car-like agility and added driver confidence.
