How the system works is that it will apply a slight braking force to the driven wheel facing the inside of a corner, thus preventing the slippage due to the fact that it travels a shorter distance, while doing the same number of rotations as the outside wheel.
The system is similar to a limited slip differential, without the brake pad wear, and is cheaper than a mechanical differential and offers safety for ordinary drivers. "Torque vectoring control elevates the dynamic capability of the entire Focus model range, from an S series sedan through a Titanium Sport Package hatchback," said Bolt.
