Navistar says its International DuraStar and WorkStar medium-duty and severe-service trucks now offer the latest advancements in electronic stability control technology from Bendix. The range includes everything from snowplows and utility trucks to mixers and construction vehicles. The system provides maximum rollover mitigation and helps prevent loss-of-control situations that often result in rollovers.

The Bendix ESP system recognizes and then helps the driver deal with both rollover and vehicle under- and over-steer driving situations in any road conditions. It continuously monitors several parameters and sensors to determine if the truck is reaching a critical stability threshold. When that does happen, the system will automatically intervene by selectively applying vehicle brakes as needed, as well as de-throttling the engine, typically doing it faster than the driver could.
