Could anyone explain what these car terms mean?

1. dual VVT-i 4-cylinder





2. 5-speed electronically controlled automatic overdrive with intelligence (ECT-i)





3. 4-wheel Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist





4. Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) [2] and Traction Control (TRAC) with off switch





Thanks alot!|||1) the engine has variable valve timing on all cams, changing valve lift and duration of lift (increase in power, torque, efficiency, improves the power and torque curves)


2) 5 speed overdrive automatic


3) ABS, none of the brakes lock up(skid) if you stamp on the anchors (skidding causes accidents and is bloody scary if you lock up mid bend), EBD, the computer sends the braking where it needs to be, to improve braking stability, Brake assist enhances brake power in an emergency


4) The cars computers further manipulate braking to stop oversteer (car's tail sliding out) or any other way you can lose control of your car, Traction control prevents wheelspin, you can turn it off
