The ADAPTIVE ESP® Electronic Stability Program automatically takes the vehicle load situation into account.

In certain dangerous situations, such as for instance the imminent risk of going into a skid, it intervenes through targeted brake application at single wheels, causing a requirement-appropriate adaptation of the engine’s output as well, to help the driver master the critical situation.

ADAPTIVE ESP® integrates the functions of the anti-lock braking system (ABS), acceleration skid control (ASR), electronic brake force distribution (EBV), Brake Assist BA and start-off assist (AAS, optional) whilst also adding a handling stability aid.

The Sprinter not only is equipped with disc brakes on all four wheels. Our engineers also managed to improve the tried and tested dual-circuit hydraulic brake system still further. An electronic indicator on each of the four wheels additionally tells about the current condition of the brake pads.

An anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic brake force distribution (EBD) are standard equipment of the Sprinter, of course, as are the Brake Assist System (BAS) and acceleration skid control (ASR).
