A first for a production engine, the cylinder bores feature a twin - wire - arc - sprayed (TWAS) coating, a new process that results in impressively low friction and running surfaces that are twice as hard as conventional cast - iron cylinders.

Depending on several variables, including vehicle speed; lateral and longitudinal acceleration; steering angle; friction differences between wheels and accelerator position, the rear differential will engage and power up the rear wheels — typically dividing torque 50 - 50, but, for brief bursts on extreme low - friction surfaces, it can send all engine power to the rear.

On low friction surfaces, for instance, or accelerating hard out of a tricky corner as another example, this could be an unwanted trait.

Also standard is the Rover's electronic Terrain Response system — an evolution of traction control that features five modes that automatically optimize the braking, stability control, transmission programming and engine output for a variety of surfaces — road, low friction surfaces, sand, mud and ruts and rock crawling.

The CLA - Class has an advanced electromechanical power steering system which uses ESP control unit data to facilitate various steering assistance functions such as counter-steering in the event of oversteer, corrective steering when braking on road surfaces with differing levels of grip (split - friction braking), minimization of torque steer and compensation for crosswinds and road gradients.

Besides ensuring optimal traction during acceleration, the system also permanently monitors a wide range of sensory inputs — for example steering angle, lateral acceleration, yaw angle and speed — to distribute torque so as to achieve optimum propulsion and safety for example on snow or to counteract sudden changes in road surface friction.

For the 552bhp (560PS) GTC, new low - friction dampers provide improved secondary ride (the response of the car to poor road surfaces) and even greater levels of comfort.

With the Drivelogic system, you can set it up for driving on low - friction surfaces (starting in second gear) and providing shift quality as good as the best epicyclic autos.

«In real conditions, regardless of the surface, there is a certain amount of friction always available for both front and rear wheels,» the announcement says.

Keeping an eye on the situation as well as the bottom line, all - mode ® automatically switches to 4WD to improve traction on lower - friction surfaces, and switches back to 2WD for optimal fuel economy when more traction is available.

Many of the comments we received arguing in favor of allowing ESC system disablement were, in fact, arguing for disablement of traction control to allow a vehicle to start moving on certain surfaces with low friction such as on snow, ice, or off - road conditions.

The Surface Pen digitizer is made out of polished aluminum for lightness and friction in the hand.

For a large - scale circulation where friction is significant especially at the surface such velocities can not be observed.

For example, the root system of forest trees facilitates both storage and extraction of moisture from soil; biogenic aerosols produced by trees control the intensity of water vapor condensation over the forest; the large height of trees determines the vertical temperature gradient under the canopy, keeping soil evaporation under biotic control; tall trees are also essential for surface friction that does not allow extremely high wind velocities to develFor example, the root system of forest trees facilitates both storage and extraction of moisture from soil; biogenic aerosols produced by trees control the intensity of water vapor condensation over the forest; the large height of trees determines the vertical temperature gradient under the canopy, keeping soil evaporation under biotic control; tall trees are also essential for surface friction that does not allow extremely high wind velocities to develfor surface friction that does not allow extremely high wind velocities to develop.
