Sensors are used to collect a range of data, including the rotational speed of all four wheels, the lateral and longitudinal acceleration of the car and the current steering angle. (porsche.com)
Ferrari says the result is «more precise and less invasive, providing greater longitudinal acceleration out of corners» and flatter, more stable behaviour during «complex manoeuvres». (autocar.co.uk)
The Italia's naturally aspirated V8 responds faster still, at 0.6 seconds, but thereafter the 488 delivers vastly more longitudinal acceleration — 20 - 25 per cent more in the lower gears, 30 per cent more in fifth and sixth and 40 per cent more in seventh. (evo.co.uk)
