The electronics make a star of mediocre talent; its Super - All-Wheel Control System and Advanced Yaw Control - one of S-AWCS subsystems - balances chassis dynamics on a knife edge, allowing a neutral cornering attitude in even hazardous conditions. Different programmes are available that tune the system to differing road conditions, such as tarmac, gravel and snow."
