Toyota Traction Select
(Depending on version)A special, patented traction control system, which improves driveability on snow, mud and sand.This system, optimised for operation in a range of conditions, enables you to manoeuvre in most slippery conditions (encountered during normal passenger car use).When combined with all-season Peak Mountain Snow Flake tyres, this system offers a compromise between safety, grip and driveability.The accelerator pedal should be pressed sufficiently to allow the system to harness the power of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds is completely normal.A five-position selector knob allows you to choose the setting best suited to the driving conditions encountered.An indicator lamp associated with each mode comes on, accompanied by the display of a message to confirm your choice.
Operating modes


Standard (VSC)
This mode is calibrated for a low level of wheel spin, based on the different levels of grip normally encountered on the road.
NOTIC E
Every time the ignition is switched off, the system automatically resets to this mode.
Snow
This mode adapts its strategy to the conditions of grip encountered for each of the two front wheels on moving off.
(mode active up to 80 km/h (50 mph))
All terrain (mud, damp grass, etc.)
This mode, when moving off, allows considerable spin on the wheel with the least grip to optimise clearing of the mud and to regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with the most grip is controlled in such a way as to transmit as much torque as possible.When moving, the system optimises wheel spin to respond to the driver's requirements as fully as possible.(mode active up to 50 km/h (31 mph))
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to move forward and limit the risks of getting stuck in the sand.(mode active up to 75 mph (120 km/h))
WARNI NG
Do not use the other modes on sand as the vehicle may become stuck.
You can deactivate the ASR and DSC systems by turning the knob to the "OFF" position.
