Sentences with phrase «intervention thresholds»

For instance, Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administrations have the lowest intervention threshold for HOS violations (exceeding 50th percentile will lead to intervention by the FMCSA and state Department of Public Safety).

Pressing the eDrive button raises the engine intervention threshold to 75 mph, effectively transforming the i8 into a front - wheel - drive EV if there's sufficient charge.

Suspension bushes are also stiffer, the power steering has been retuned and the «M differential» has been tweaked to improve response, while the «half - off» M Dynamic stability control mode now has a higher intervention threshold.

I gradually ramp up speed, moving through the Performance Traction Management system's five intervention thresholds as I do.

The separately switched PSM Sport mode alters the PSM intervention threshold much more than was the case in the Sport Plus mode of the previous model.

Instead, an «off - road» mode that lowers the intervention threshold is engaged.

Track replaces the 2016 model's Sport mode and raises the intervention threshold even further.

The more sport - oriented modes sharpen throttle response, select a more aggressive transmission shift map, firm up the dampers, stiffen the antiroll bars, quicken the steering ratio, reduce the power - steering assistance, and raise the stability control's intervention threshold.

As you would expect there is a raft of advanced technology to provide an invisible safety net, but the uprated DSC and ABS systems operate discreetly — their intervention thresholds precisely calibrated to remain very much in the background until their help is required.

With the stability control set in competition mode (2 clicks, substantially raising the intervention threshold) the 1LE will wag its tail, and can also be drifted through corners using the throttle.

However, the intervention threshold is relatively high, which means that it is rarely employed in normal dry conditions.

A brief push on this button switches the system to Dynamic Traction Control, in which DSC's intervention threshold is raised; one effect of this setting is improved traction in deep snow.

This mode allows for very spirited driving — as on a race track — while still providing a safety by raising the intervention thresholds of DSC.

DTC mode increases the intervention thresholds of DSC, making it easier to drive on loose sand or deep snow.

The upshot is that the intervention threshold of the standard stability - control system has been recalibrated, as it is not required to work as much as with the outgoing model.

By raising the intervention thresholds of DSC, this mode makes it easier to move off on snow or loose sand with slightly spinning driven wheels.
