The concept
Integral Active Steering is a combination of Active Steering and rear axle steering.
Active Steering varies the steering angle of the wheels in relation to the steering wheel movement as a function of the speed.
At speeds up to approx. 37 mph/60 km/h, e.g., in curves, the steering angle is increased, i.e., steering becomes more direct.
The rear axle steering acts to increase maneuverability by turning the rear wheels slightly in a direction opposite to the front wheels. At higher speeds, the steering angle is increasingly reduced.
The rear wheels are turned to the same angle as the front wheels.
In critical situations, Integral Active Steering can specifically steer the front and rear wheels to stabilize the vehicle before the driver intervenes, e.g., when braking where road conditions differ on the left and right sides of the vehicle.
