Maruti Suzuki India Limited (MSIL) has made a significant advancement in passenger safety by introducing the Electronic Stability Program+ (ESP) as a standard feature across its entire range of passenger vehicles. This enhancement now includes the Alto K10 and S-Presso, the latest models to be equipped with this cutting-edge safety technology. Impressively, Maruti Suzuki has managed to incorporate ESP into these vehicles without raising their prices.
Beyond ESP, the comprehensive safety suite in the Maruti Suzuki lineup also includes dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, reverse parking sensors, engine immobilizer, the HEARTECT Platform, and a collapsible steering column, among other features.
The Electronic Stability Program+ (ESP) is engineered to prevent skidding and keep the vehicle on its intended course. By integrating the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Traction Control System (TCS), and Stability Control (SC), ESP uses a network of sensors to monitor vehicle dynamics. The data collected is analyzed by an electronic control unit, which continuously adjusts the vehicle’s trajectory, enhancing stability and control for a safer driving experience
