Kinematic Posture Control (KPC)

Kinematic Posture Control (KPC)

KPC is a system that stabilizes the vehicle's posture by controlling the brakes on sharp curves.

Warning and Cautions for Using the Kinematic Posture Control (KPC)

 


Do not rely on the KPC as a substitute for safe driving.

The KPC cannot compensate for unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too closely), and hydroplaning (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.

How to Use the Kinematic Posture Control (KPC)

Enabling Operation of the KPC

Drive the vehicle at a speed of about 20 km/h (13 mph) or faster.

The KPC is operable.

 


There is no notification function of the KPC operation status.

Stopping Operation of the KPC

The KPC operation can be stopped by operating the DSC OFF switch.

Refer to How to Use the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) (Search).
