Roll stability control (RSC)

Volvo's Roll Stability Control (RSC) is a stability system designed to help minimize the risk of a rollover in emergency maneuvers or if a skid should occur.

RSC registers the amount of change in the lateral angle at which the vehicle is leaning. Using this information, RSC calculates the likelihood of a rollover. If there is an imminent risk of a rollover, the stability system is activated, power to the engine is cut and the brakes are applied to one or more of the wheels until the vehicle regains stability.

 Warning

The vehicle’s stability systems, including RSC, do not replace the driver’s responsibility for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Speed and driving style should always be adapted to the current road, traffic and weather conditions. Posted speed limits should always be respected.
