2) Camber
The angle between the center line of the tire and the vertical line when viewed from the front of the
vehicle
CamberFront-0.12˚±0.50˚
Rear-1.20˚±0.50˚
Zero camber: When the tire center line is perpendicular to the ground level ▶
Disadvantages:The axle is easy to be bent or deviated in the negative camber than in the
positive camber when load is applied on the axle.
Difficult to control due to wide load area. -
- Advantages:Better traction force due to wide load area (applicable for off-road vehicle)
Better corner driving when the vehicle makes turn as the cornering force -
- Negative camber ▶Disadvantages:Cornering force decreases as the positive camber increases when the vehicle
makes turn.
The hub bearing is worn unevenly if camber is excessive. -
- Advantages:The axle is not bent when it is loaded.
The force required to operate the steering wheel is reduced due to smaller
contact area (or load area) of the tire.
Restoring force of the steering wheel is gained (when turning the steering wheel,
the tire circles and the force to lift the frame is applied. In this case, the shock
absorber contracts and the restoration force is applied to the steering wheel.) -
-
- Positive camber: Top of the tire is tilted outward ▶

2. FUNCTION
1) Term Definition
ABS: Anti-Lock Brake System ▶
When the brake pedal is abruptly depressed, the HECU calculates the slip ratio of each wheel based
on information received from the wheel speed sensors and controls the hydraulic module data quickly
and precisely in order to maintain the friction between the road surface and tire optimal (static friction).
Therefore, by keeping the friction between the road surface and tire optimal, it is possible to obtain
following effects: Enhanced steering stability, improved direction stability, reduced stopping distance
and etc.
EBD: Electronic brake-Force Distribution ▶
This is to detect the tire speed from the wheel speed sensor in order to supply the braking pressure to
the rear tires individually. In other words, the HECU measures the tire deceleration speed continuously
and controls the rear inlet valve on the hydraulic modulator to obtain optimal braking force as much as
possible. Thereby, stopping distance, braking effect and straight stability are improved.
ESP: Electronic Stability Program ▶
This is used to make the vehicle stabilized to recognize the emergency driving conditions, and to
control the brake for each wheels and the engine power when the brake system or acceleration will not
work any more in dangerous circumstances.
TCS: Traction Control System ▶
When the wheel is slipping due to an excessive engine torque while starting off or driving, this controls
the driving force (braking force + engine torque) in order to prevent the wheel from slipping through the
engine or brake control.
AYC: Active Yaw Control ▶
This has been developed to help a driver avoid danger of losing control of the vehicle stability due to
understeer or oversteer during cornering, which is a part of the ESP function.
HBA: Hydraulic Brake Assistant ▶
Developed based on the fact that elderly drivers depress the brake pedal too soft even when hard
braking is necessary, this an assist system to operate the HECU drive motor immediately and apply
high braking force to the wheels when the brake pedal is depressed softly and the vehicle should be
braked in emergency.
ARP: Active Rollover Protection ▶
This is a supplementary device for safety in ESP system and can help minimize the rollover accidents
by detecting a potential rollover situation through the brake and engine control when making sudden
lane change or turning sharply by adding only the software, without any separate device or switch.

2) Operation of ESP System
(1) Under steering
What is understeering? ▶
ESP controls during understeer ▶ Understeer is a term for a condition in which the steering wheel is steered to a certain angle during
driving and the front tires slip toward the reverse direction of the desired direction. Generally, vehicles
are designed to have understeer. It is because that the vehicle can return back to inside of cornering
line when the steering wheel is steered toward the inside even when the front wheels are slipped
outward.
As the centrifugal force increases, the tires can easily lose the traction and the vehicle tends to slip
outward when the curve angle gets bigger and the speed increases.
The ESP system recognizes the directional angle with the steering wheel angle sensor and senses the
slipping route that occurs reversely against the vehicle cornering direction during understeer with the
yaw rate sensor and lateral sensor. Then, the ESP system applies the braking force to the rear inner
wheel to compensate the yaw moment value. In this way, the vehicle does not lose its driving direction
and the driver can steer the vehicle as intended.

(2) Over steering
What is oversteering? ▶
ESP controls during oversteer ▶ Oversteer is a term of a condition in which the steering wheel is steered to a certain angle during
driving and the rear tires slip outward losing traction.
Compared to understeering vehicles, it is hard to control the vehicle during cornering and the vehicle
can spin due to rear wheel moment when the rear tires lose traction and the vehicle speed increases.
The ESP system recognizes the directional angle with the steering wheel angle sensor and senses the
slipping route that occurs towards the vehicle cornering direction during oversteer with the yaw rate
sensor and lateral sensor. Then the ESP system applies the braking force to the front outer wheel to
compensate the yaw moment value. In this way, the vehicle does not lose its driving direction and the
driver can steer the vehicle as intended.
