The Diablo VT Roadster was the second generation of the Diablo and was introduced in 1995 and produced through 1998. Some of the updates to the VT (which stands for Viscous Traction) from the earlier Diablo include an improved power steering system, all-wheel drive, resized front wheels, four-piston Brembo brake calipers, and an updated dashboard that controls an all-new computerized suspension system. It enables the driver to control the settings himself or just leave it on auto, letting the computer do all the work.
