Improve torque vectoring with XDS (Expanded Electronic Differential Lock)

It’s a computer-controlled system to distribute an engine’s power across the left and right sides of a car. By controlling the power across the axle more effectively, the car is able to corner with more grip and turn into a bend quicker.

With torque vectoring through braking (known as XDS in Volkswagen Group cars), the system brakes the inside wheel during a turn.

On the road, a car equipped with torque vectoring should feel more secure and stable at speed, especially through corners. You should also notice that the front of the car is more willing to pull itself into a corner or ‘turn in’ more effectively before the front wheels begin to understeer (lose grip)
