The 2006 2007 Toyota Avalon offers Toyota's Vehicle Skid Control (VSC) is an electronic system designed to help the driver maintain vehicle control under adverse conditions. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Factors including speed, road conditions and driver steering input can all affect whether VSC will be effective in preventing a loss of control. Also Toyota Avalon's Brake Assist is designed to help the driver take full advantage of the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake-system maintenance and tire and road conditions. Engine and chassis vibration has been minimized with a sophisticated active control engine mount. Road anomalies have been masked by gas-filled twin-tube shock absorbers. Power rack-and-pinion steering adjusts the amount of assist relative to speed. Gears have been precision-machined, heat-treated and machined again for smooth, fluid meshing. Separate anti-vibration sub-frames in the front and rear reduce ride harshness while adding rigidity for more precise handling. Enhanced control is achieved through a Vehicle Skid Control (VSC) system with Traction Control (TRAC) and Brake Assist. |
