Delphi Active Rear Steering for Passenger Cars is a lightweight, low-angle system specifically designed to provide an affordable rear-steering system. It is suitable for sport-utility vehicles and other larger passenger vehicles.

Benefits

• Dynamic control algorithms allow vehicle manufacturers to "dial in" desired handling characteristics
• Helps balance ride and handling performance with improved vehicle dynamics, or active safety
• Helps minimize oversteer and understeer at all speeds and on all surfaces without slowing the vehicle
• When integrated with controlled braking, Active Rear Steering can provide a more effective stability enhancement option than brakes alone
• Helps deliver instantaneous rear steering control and blended braking as needed
• Helps minimize any slowing of the vehicle, making corrective action less noticeable to the driver
• Vehicle stopping distances on split and mixed coefficient surfaces can be reduced
• Maintains traditional front-wheel steering benefits
• Reduces vehicle’s turn circle for added maneuverability during city driving or parking
• Can be configured with unique algorithms for improved handling and safety when trailering
• Low-cost, lightweight, and modular actuator can be used with a variety of suspension configurations
• Automatic safety system instantly returns vehicle to two-wheel steering if four-wheel system is damaged
