[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 263582, member: 3592"] Description of BMW Active Steering: At low speeds, the motor adds an appropriate amount of wheel lock. Parking, for example, the ratio is such that just two turns are needed to go lock-to-lock. Around town, the steering ratio is increased, though the system is tuned to be much more direct than a conventional power steering unit. The idea is to make the car feel more agile and nimble, and cut driver fatigue by reducing the input from the driver through the steering wheel. [U]At high speeds, Active Steering makes the steering much more indirect so small movements won't change the vehicle's path.[/U] [/QUOTE]
