Central to this system is an electronic "brain" - the control mode of motion. With the help of sensors the main "manager" following the parameters of the dynamics of the car: the predominant microprofile road, moving cars and driving features inherent to the driver - the nature of the acceleration and braking, and cornering style. Thanks to the symbiosis of mechanical and electronic system responds in milliseconds to change the terms of the car and manages the stiffness of shock absorbers, the parameters of steering and throttle to get the optimum balance between comfort, safety and driving pleasure.
In addition, the driver is not deprived of the opportunity to choose chassis tuning on the situation and mood by pressing the "Tour" or "Sport", located at the top of the center console. If you do not press any one of them, the mode is "Standart", in which the dampers are constantly optimize settings between comfort and mode that allows active movement.
When using the "Tour" atypical behavior representative of the "golf" class varies considerably in the direction of comfort, a slightly "stretched" reactions and the maximum ride.
When the road and the driver's mood encourages select "Sport", the machine instantly becomes more acute, sharp and collected: it feels to work harder dampers, quicker reactions pedal "gas" and more "heavy" steering wheel. And the driver can adjust to the sports mode even better, lighting devices is changing from a neutral gray to bright red. In addition, if this Astra with automatic transmission, gear shift points "upward" shift toward higher engine revolutions. But that's not all. In the presence of intellectual control systems AFL + headlamps her reaction in the corners are faster.
It's nice that drivers make their own change system settings. With the onboard computer display or navigation system, it can selectively disable a sports mode for shock absorbers, power steering or throttle. It is also important that a sharp detour obstacles to the system immediately increases the stiffness of the suspension to maneuver turned out as safely as possible. Price option in Russia - 40 thousand rubles, and it is available only for versions of Essentia.
