Brake System: 5- BAS (Brake Assist System)

 5- BAS (Brake Assist System)

What is BAS?

Simply, a brake assist system monitors the driver’s use of the brake pedal, automatically sensing an attempt to stop the car as a result of panic.
It then provides very high braking power, even when the driver is only pressing gently on the brake pedal.

When this is used together with anti-lock braking systems, it success in faster and safer braking.

Depending on the driver, statistics for emergency stops in cars using this technology range from a 20% - 45% reduction in stopping distances, a potentially significant difference in critical situations.

Some road tests show that a driver requires up to 240 feet (73 meters) to stop a car heading around 60 mph (100 km/h).

 In the same circumstances, cars with brake assist were able to come to a complete stop in as little as 130 feet (40 meters).
Since it only takes one-fifth of a second to travel a car length at highway speeds, the superior speed with which the brake assist is able to react also accounts for its improved safety results over traditional braking systems.
