S-AWC is an integrated vehicle dynamics
control system that helps enhance driving
performance, cornering performance, and
vehicle stability over a wide range of driving
conditions through integrated management of
the twin motor 4WD, the AYC (Active Yaw
Control), the ABS and the ASC.
This system improves vehicle stability perfor-
mance and fuel economy performance during
acceleration and deceleration by motors pro-
vided at front and rear wheels, respectively,
controlling the distribution of a drive force
between the front and rear wheels optimal for
the operation of the driver.

The AYC is a system, with a left-right differ-
ential limiting function and yaw control func-
tion, that controls the left-right
driving/braking force by managing the brake.

CAUTION
 Do not over-rely on the S-AWC. Even the S-
AWC cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle. This sys-
tem, like any other system, has limits and
cannot help you to maintain traction and con-
trol of the vehicle in all circumstances. Reck-
less driving can lead to accidents. It is the
driver’s responsibility to drive carefully.
This means taking into account the traffic,
road and environmental conditions.
