ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
The electric power steering is a power assisted steering device designed to reduce the effort required
from the user at the steering wheel, especially during steering manoeuvres at low speed, without
making the steering too light during normal driving.
Electric power steering offers the following advantages compared with hydraulic power steering:
The system has fewer components and therefore weighs less and is less complex.
The installation and/or servicing times are reduced and the procedures are simpler.
The electric power steering system only consumes energy from the engine when power
assistance is requested, improving the performance of the car and reducing fuel
consumption and emissions.
A reduction in operating noise improves driving comfort.
Reduction in pollution, since the electrical energy used is clean.
Variation in power assistance depending on vehicle speed.
Steering return to the centre (active return)
Steering return oscillation damping
Selectable power assistance (Normal / City)
COMPONENTS
Steering column
The column is height and depth-adjustable.
