What is the definition of weight transfer?
Weight transfer refers to the redistribution of the vehicle's weight during acceleration, braking, and cornering. As the vehicle accelerates, brakes, or turns, the weight shifts from one part of the vehicle to another, affecting the handling and traction of the vehicle. Weight transfer plays a crucial role in determining the balance and stability of a vehicle during various driving maneuvers.
What is advancetrac?
AdvanceTrac Stability Enhancement System (if equipped) The AdvanceTrac system helps the driver maintain the stability and steer-ability of the vehicle. The system integrates anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Traction Control with other vehicle systems to further enhance the stability of the vehicle. The system shares many of the electronic and mechanical elements already present in the Traction Control and ABS systems. AdvanceTrac constantly monitors the vehicle motion relative to the driver's intended course. This is done by using added sensors that compare the steering inputs from the driver with the actual motion of the vehicle. When there is a discrepancy between the driver's inputs and the vehicle motion, AdvanceTrac changes the force at each tire to help control the vehicle. If the vehicle begins to rotate excessively left or right, spin out, or slide sideways, the system will attempt to correct the excessive motion. If the vehicle does not respond to steering inputs, the system will attempt to increase the turning response of the vehicle. AdvanceTrac enhances stability during maneuvers that require all available tire traction to control the vehicle. The system uses ABS and Traction Control (including control of the engine) as well as its more advanced controls to enhance vehicle stability. The benefits of the AdvanceTrac system are most noticeable when driving in wet/snowy/icy road conditions and/or when performing emergency maneuvers. In an emergency lane-change, the driver will experience better overall control of the vehicle.

What is the effect of raising a vehicle's center of gravity?
Raising a vehicle's center of gravity can make it more prone to tipping over during sharp turns or sudden maneuvers. This can reduce stability and control, especially at high speeds. Additionally, it may increase the risk of rollover accidents.
