ASR is traction control. ESP is much more besides.

Right.. I understand that ASR is for FWD cars, but I didn't know how ESP works with Quattro..

Quattro literally delivers and distributes power amongst all wheels (in a nutshell), but what exactly does electronic stability system do besides stabilizing the car .

Basically, if the car senses itself going at a daffy angle, it cuts power.
