I haven't really read the docs yet, but things which I've seen it to have are at least:
- the braking force is lowered even before the wheel locks
- wheels don't spin when you accelerate too hard
- wheels don't spin when you climb slippery hills (probably same as the previous thing)
- when the rear breaks out, it's put back in line with the driving direction
- when sidewind hits the car, it does a counter steering (that's really only needed for smart cars as they weight only 500kg and have a huge side wind attack profile)
- when the car spins, it's caused to stop (gladly never have experienced that yet)
- when the car stops, the engine turns off (can be useful, or not useful, depending on the situation)
- combined braking and turning from high speeds also makes the system to rattle (could be just 2 systems active at once)
