The strength of Pajero/Montero ladder frame has been nearly tripled over previous designs, providing even better resistance to torsional and flexural stresses without any further increase in weight. This rigidity translates to better handling and comfort over difficult road conditions and lower chance of control loss.
ASTC utilizes a network of control units and intelligent sensors to monitor vehicle status as well as the driver’s steering. As road and vehicle conditions change, ASTC manages the forces on all wheels by precisely controlling engine torque and braking force going to each one, providing improved vehicle control, trace ability and traction in all driving conditions. ASTC lets driving enthusiasts enjoy the full potential of Pajero/Montero in complete confidence.
ASTC calculates real-time vehicle status via sensor data. Whenever the potential for oversteer or understeer in corners is detected, ASTC determines the correct yaw for Pajero/Montero and applies braking force to the appropriate wheels. This enables drivers to maintain control even in slippery road conditions.
Multi-mode ABS(Anti-lock Braking System)
When the road throws you an unexpected curve, ABS ensures that you’ll be ready. The 4-sensor, 4-channel system is matched to each SS4 II mode to ensure skid-free braking regardless of surface conditions.
EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution)
EBD modulates each braking channel independently, providing additional force to the rear wheels when the vehicle is carrying passengers or cargo. This ensures you are able to come to a stop quickly and safely, regardless of load or road conditions.
