FEATURES
Brake system with high reliability and durability have
achieved distinguished braking performance.
BRAKING PERFORMANCE
•Brake booster with 9-inch variable amplification
ratio mechanism by which greater braking force
can be obtained with a less pedal pressure has
been installed (with brake assist function).
•14-inch disc brake is installed on the front
wheels.
•15-inch disc brake is installed on the front
wheels.
•8-inch leading trailing type drum brake is installed
on the rear wheels.
•14-inch disc brake is installed on the rear wheels.

STABILITY
•4-wheel anti-lock braking system (4ABS) is
adopted to prevent slipping caused by the vehicle
wheels locking up, in order to maintain appropri
-
ate braking distance, and also to maintain vehicle
stability and steering function.
•Electronic brake-force distribution (EBD) is
adopted to maintain the maximum amount of rear
braking force even when the vehicle's load is var
-
ied.
•Diagonal split (X-type) brake fluid line is adopted.
•Ventilated discs have been adopted to front
brakes to improve anti-fading performance.
•A brake pedal retraction suppression structure
that restrains the retraction of the brake pedal
and reduces the shock to the feet of the driver in
the event of a frontal collision has been adopted.
SERVICEABILITY
•Diagnosis function is adopted for the ABS system
in order to make inspection easier.
•For the front disc brakes, brake disc separated
front hub is adapted to make removal and instal
-
lation easier.
•ABS-ECU and hydraulic unit have been inte-
grated to make them more compact and lighter.
