24 Driving and Operating
Competitive Driving Mode, PTM, and Launch
Control are systems designed for a closed
course race track and not intended for use
on public roads. The systems are not
intended to compensate for lack of driver
experience or familiarity with the race track.
Custom Launch Control may be available
through the Settings menu, if equipped. See
“Custom Launch Control”in Track Events and
Competitive Driving in the owner’s manual.
Limited-Slip Differential
The Electronic Limited-Slip Differential (eLSD)
is a hydraulically actuated clutch system.
It can infinitely vary the clutch engagement
between 0 and 2000 Y(1475 lb ft) of
breakaway torque between the rear wheels.
It responds to full engagement within
0.150 seconds when necessary. Smaller
clutch adjustments happen even faster.
The eLSD:
.Uses the vehicle sensors and driver inputs
to determine the optimum amount of
clutch engagement for the conditions.
.Improves traction while cornering by
changing the engagement to achieve a
balance between directional control and
acceleration.
.Provides optimal engagement for
high-speed control and stability without
affecting precise steering and turn-in.
.Improves vehicle stability during spirited
driving and evasive maneuvers. Is fully
integrated with the Active Handling and
Performance Traction Management (PTM)
systems.
There are unique calibrations based on the
Traction Control System (TCS) setting. eLSD
modes change automatically when
Yis
pressed. No unique input from the driver is
required.
.Mode 1 is the standard mode when the
vehicle is started. It provides a touring
calibration with an emphasis on vehicle
stability. Mode 1 is also used in PTM
Wet mode.
.Mode 2 is engaged when both TCS and
StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) are turned off. This calibration
provides more nimble corner turn-in, and
is biased for better traction out of
corners.
.Mode 3 is engaged when PTM is engaged
in Dry, Sport 1 & 2, and Race modes. This
is a nimble calibration with similar
functionality as eLSD Mode 2, however, it
is integrated to work with PTM.
.Mode 4 is engaged when TCS is selected
off, but StabiliTrak/ESC remains on.
Vehicle stability is still the priority, while
allowing for optimized traction out of
corners.
The ZL1 1LE, ZL1 coupe, and SS 1LE are
calibrated uniquely and optimized for their
unique powertrain and chassis combinations.
