Honda HR-V: EPS System Description - Motion Adaptive-EPS Control
Overview
Motion adaptive-EPS control performs the steering torque correction control
coordinated with VSA system for
stabilizing the vehicle when the steering is unstable. The EPS system determines
the state of the vehicle based
on the data calculated by the VSA modulator-control unit, and the data from the
yaw rate sensor and the
acceleration sensor. When the system determines that the vehicle behavior is
abnormal, the EPS control unit
calculates the correction current based on the vehicle behavior and corrects the
steering torque. The motion
adaptive-EPS control is stopped in the event of failure in the VSA system.

Mitigates Oversteer Control
When oversteer occurs, it compensates for steering torque to steer in the
countersteer direction, and enhances
vehicle control.

Stabilizes Braking on Road Surfaces With Different Friction Coefficients
Control
When the vehicle behavior is abnormal while braking on an uneven road
surface, it compensates for steering
torque to enhance vehicle control.
