ABC
This is the active body control developed by Mercedes for its top of the range vehicles. The objective is to avoid any body swinging. a normal situation on curves where the car leans strongly to one side. It is an electro-pneumatic system which. in conjunction with the ABS. permits the automatic regulation of springs and shock absorbers.
 
ABD
Initials that refer to the differential with automatic braking. Its operation. which uses the hydraulic circuits in the ABS. makes the first wheel to slide brake and transmits more engine torque to the other.
 
ABS
This is the system known as Anti-blocking sytem for the brakes (abbreviation of Anti Blocker System). This device consists of an electronic sensor installed on the wheel to detect whether the wheels block when braking. If they do it reduces the braking pressure on the wheels affected. avoiding any blocking. So. the possible loss of car control is reduced in extreme situations. as well as the vehicle stopping in a shorter distance.
