How do electronic stability control systems work in Audi vehicles?

Electronic stability control (ESC) is a safety feature that helps drivers maintain control of their vehicle in emergency situations. In Audi vehicles, this technology is known as Electronic Stability Program (ESP) and is designed to prevent the vehicle from skidding or sliding while braking or turning. But how does it actually work? What sensors and systems are involved? And how does it benefit Audi drivers?

The Electronic Stability Program in Audi vehicles works by utilizing a network of sensors to monitor vehicle speed, steering wheel angle, and individual wheel speeds. When a potential loss of control is detected, the system can apply individual braking to certain wheels, and even adjust engine power, to help keep the vehicle stable and on course.
