The hydraulic brake system is a diagonally split dual line system, and consists of the brake pedal, brake master cylinder and hydraulic pipes and hoses.
The brake pipes distribute pressure from the master cylinder to the four corners of the vehicle via the ABS (anti-lock brake system) module. Braided steel hoses are used to connect the brake pipes to the front and rear calipers.
