The Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM) [1] system employs a range of advanced safety features to help prevent a loss of traction in turns and maintain control. When a series of sensors anticipates the potential for a loss of traction, the system uses a combination of individual-wheel braking, throttle activation and, on the GS 460, steering via Variable Gear-Ratio Steering (VGRS). The GS is also equipped with Traction Control (TRAC) to help prevent wheelspin while accelerating.
