Brakes and Traction Control: Description and Operation

GENERAL INFORMATION
Brake systems with higher reliability and durability have achieved distinguished braking performance.

FEATURES

IMPROVEMENT OF BRAKING PERFORMANCE
^ A 10-inch single brake booster with the variable boost ratio mechanism has been used to assure maximum braking force with less pedal pressure in case of emergency.
^ In addition to the 10-inch single brake booster, a small and long stroke-type master cylinder has been adopted to achieve downsizing and secure assist force.
^ 16-inch ventilated disk brakes have been adopted for the front.
^ 16-inch solid disk brake has been adopted for the rear.
^ The aluminum pedal pad has been adopted to the brake pedal. [2.0L Engine]

IMPROVEMENT IN SAFETY
^ X-type piping of brake lines have been adopted for the front and rear wheels.
^ The brake pedal retreat suppression mechanism that suppresses the retraction of brake pedal surface upon a frontal collision is adopted.
^ Audible wear indicators are used on the front and rear brake pads to warn the driver of wear limit.
