What does the Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) system do to enhance safety?

The Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) system is designed to enhance vehicle safety by intervening during severe driving maneuvers. This technology utilizes input from various sensors to monitor the vehicle's dynamics and assess the risk of a rollover or loss of stability.

When the system detects conditions that could lead to a rollover, such as sharp turns or sudden swerving, it takes proactive measures to stabilize the vehicle. This can involve selectively applying brakes to specific wheels to counteract the forces that may lead to tipping, helping to maintain vehicle control and reduce the likelihood of a rollover.

The other options do not accurately represent the primary functions of the ERM system. While increasing engine power or improving traction might enhance performance in specific scenarios, they are not part of the ERM system's focus on rollover prevention. Similarly, while applying brakes during skids might be a feature of other stability systems, it is not the defining characteristic of the ERM system, which emphasizes the prevention of rollovers specifically during severe driving conditions.
