PRINCIPLE

The Electronic Brake assist System (EBS) is a very efficient aid in emergency braking situations when the driver wants the vehicle to stop as quickly as possible. This can help avoid an accident or reduce its seriousness, due to decreased vehicle speed at the moment of collision.

EXPLANATION

In these situations, most drivers apply the brake fast, but not with the maximum pressure, and this insufficient braking power leads to dangerously long braking distances.
The system is triggered when the brake assist recognizes the fast and hard braking by the driver classified as typical 'emergency braking'.
It activates the maximum braking power immediately. Therefore even moderate pedal force leads to maximum deceleration.
