ASR. Reducing the torque transmitted to the drive wheels

Reduced torque slipping both the drive wheels is accomplished by reducing engine power. In this case, the power of the engine is limited so as to transmit only the torque required to drive the vehicle.

ASR system should always be included. Only in certain exceptional cases where the desired wheel slip, preferably a system shut down.
