Electric Power Steering: Although hydraulic steering systems are used very often in automobiles, electric power steering is becoming more and more widespread. This system offers the benefits of greater fuel efficiency, thanks to its ability to supply its own energy needs according to the current driving conditions, and less tyre wear. In addition, the system requires less space than an hydraulic system, and is remarkably low-maintenance.

Electric power steering delivers a highly flexible, individual steering dynamic. A torque sensor measure the force that the driver is applying to the steering wheel, and adjusts the vehicle's steering characteristics to suit the situation. This ensures a more immediate and direct sports driving experience.
