Mazda Develops New Technology based on Hitachi's G-Vectoring Safe Driving Assist Technology

- To be introduced with updated Mazda Axela -

TOKYO, Jul 14, 2016 - (JCN Newswire) - Hitachi Automotive Systems, Ltd. today announced that Mazda Motor Corporation has developed a new technology based on Hitachi's G-Vectoring vehicle motion control technologies. It will be introduced as an advanced safety feature of the new-generation models introduced in Japan, starting with the updated Mazda Axela, which goes on sale today.

Mazda Axela Sport

Mazda developed the advanced G-Vectoring Control (GVC) technology by pursuing application-focused development on the basis of Hitachi Automotive Systems' G-Vectoring control algorithm. Its key feature of enabling dynamic coordination in both the car's lateral and longitudinal acceleration forces makes it the world's first control system capable of ensuring smooth and efficient vehicle motion by optimizing the vertical load on the four wheels.

The GVC developed by Mazda is the first step toward the company's new-generation vehicle motion control technologies initiative known as SKYACTIV-VEHICLE DYNAMICS series. It is expected to stimulate future market growth as a new-concept control technology that uses the engine to enhance chassis performance.

Hitachi Automotive Systems is committed to continuing vigorous development of leading-edge automotive equipment systems with the potential to improve car safety and comfort, and to help carmakers build more appealing cars.
