With and without ABS @ 120kmh

[Kklee]

Just feel like sharing these videos on ABS. The more interesting ones will be the Camry e-braking. Bigger cars definitely need ABS !

in terms of stopping distance, don't see much different between the w/ ABS and w/o ABS..

 

so what's the conclusion ?

[LoverofCar]

May be i blur like sotong...the two video suppose to provide us a visual judgement of having and without ABS? I see no different ,..

[Thaiyotakamli]

Might as well without abs, maybe cheaper price

[ST69]

you'll see more difference when its tested on wet road. Prevents brakes from locking & hence skidding.

 

seems that the test is done in Thailand. Didnt know Camry also made there.

[Shibadog]

uhm...why test on dry surface?

 

shld test abs on wet/icy/slippery surface to see the effect, on a non-professional driver.

[Friendstar]

Jam brake in the Wet plus directional change.

 

 

True test.

 

Btw. Nearly all cars come with abs. So what's the purpose of this?

[ER-3682]

ABS make alot of drivers "Overconfident" ,drive closer,results.??Also alot of accident,with or without ABS,we still to leave a distance between cars.

[Kklee]

In my comparison, assuming they never shift the truck truck in the background.

 

Vios - with or without ABS, the stopping distance seems the same

Camry - without ABS, the stopping distance is way longer compared with VIOS. With ABS, the distance seems shorter compared with Vios.

 

 

Here are the wet ones.

such people are ill informed. ABS is anti lock, not brake more jiak. ironically, in dry surface ABS kick in may cause accident. it free up the brake and the car cant stop on time/need a longer distance to come to a complete stop.

If you see the Camry videos with and without ABS, you may think otherwise.

In this case for the Vios with or without ABS it's the same... But perhaps result might differs with a full load?

ABS is not about braking distance.

 

Its maintaining steering control when your wheel is locked up without ABS assistance .

Yes its about steering control, without abs ur braking will be out of lane and brake will also stuck

[Hamburger]

In another word,

 

Car without ABS: When the wheel locked up under hard braking, no matter how you steer L or R to avoid frontal collision, it will just go straight on.

[Soya]

Duhh.....what a pointless ABS test in the dry n straight line.

 

ABS is abt maintaining control n swerving around the danger in the wet.

[Watwheels]

In real life situations I dun think conditions will be like these tests. What I dun like about Japanese cars here is that they dun come with ESP or stability control. Some dun even have traction control that comes as standard.

 

ABS is to stop your wheels from slipping or lose traction on dry/wet surface...when you are stopping.

 

Traction control stops your wheels from slipping when your car is accelerating.

 

Stability control or ESP stops your car from sliding sideways by cutting power whenever neccessary.

 

We saw here how the Altis w/o ABS on the wet tried to stop. It slided sideways.

Imagine this Altis even with ABS tries to avoid obstacles by swerving left & right before coming to a full stop. W/o ESP it will most likely slide sideways.

 

Start from 6:04 to watch the ESP test. Like what Tiff mentioned, ABS and traction control works well on the straight line...

In reality we need all three, ABS, Traction Control & ESP to avoid potential accidents.
