新聞內容如下:
配備的旋鈕式電子切換加力箱可簡易設定四輪傳動模式，再搭配鋸齒式四速自動變速系統，面對各式泥濘或崎嶇陡峭路皆游刃有餘。搭載的VVT 2.4L DOHC 16V引擎，可輸出最大165.8匹馬力。全車標配6只SRS輔助氣囊，除了雙前座與車門輔助氣囊外，前後車窗更配備輔助氣簾的周密防護。針對主動防護科技，SUZUKI更貼心引進BOS煞車優先系統，當行駛過程駕駛人同時急踩煞車與油門時，智慧科技將優先處理煞車訊號；而
ESP®電子穩定系統能自動偵測各種行車狀況，隨時穩定車身以降低行駛打滑的危險性；另外三合一煞車系統(ABS+EBD+BAS)更能緩和意外撞擊並快速穩定速度，在乘車安全上提供相當高度的保障。
New Grand Vitara JP建議售價為NT$1,038,000
被動安全性也都很高，看來這也是另一個好選擇…

節錄一些重點
Findings of the Institute study:
ESC reduced fatal single-vehicle crash risk by about 56 percent. The fatality risk reduction for crashes involving two or more vehicles was smaller (17 percent) and not statistically significant. ESC reduced the risk of all single-vehicle crashes, fatal and nonfatal, by 41 percent.
Method:
To establish these results, Institute researchers analyzed police-reported crashes in 7 states over 2 years as well as data from the federal Fatality Analysis Reporting System. The researchers analyzed the crash rates (all crashes, injury crashes, and fatal crashes per registered vehicle year) of cars and SUVs with ESC as standard equipment versus prior versions of these vehicles when they weren’t equipped with ESC or ESC was available only as an option (very few vehicles were equipped with this option). The study vehicles were restricted to models with no design changes except for the addition of ESC.
Other studies:
NHTSA reported a 35 percent reduction in single-vehicle crash risk for cars and a 67 percent reduction for SUVs. Fatal single-vehicle crashes were reduced about 30 percent (cars) and 63 percent (SUVs).
Potential to save lives:
If all vehicles on U.S. roads had ESC, we might avoid as many as 800,000 of the 2 million or so single-vehicle crashes that occur each year. About 14,000 fatal single-vehicle crashes occurred in 2003, which means there’s a potential to save more than 7,000 lives each year.
前前後後還蠻多的報告指出ESC可以救回不少人
所以促成美國國會立法強制配備ESC
不過小弟也想安慰一下樓主：
反正美國跟台灣的氣候環境、駕駛習慣等等差那麼多，這篇報告不見得適用台灣。
此外，就算適用台灣，想想看美國這麼多車，一年(2003)有14,000 fatal single-vehicle crashes，純粹冷血的用機率來看是很低的，更冷血一點的，有ESC也是只有降56%，不是100%。
冷血的話說完，想說些實際點的：
看fatal crashes很恐怖，其實機率真的不高。印象中，台灣一年大概2000件左右的A1事故，其中多數是機車。nonfatal crashes才是常發生的，雖然根據這篇報告，ESC也只能降41%，但小弟心裡不負責估算，ESC應該可以降低不少財損。
小弟心裡真正的想法：
這些數字只有對立法者有意義，對小弟自己家庭而言，只有0跟100%的差別。只要能力許可，還是要ESC。
