Development of steering behavior at Audi

The steering wheel is almost as old as the automobile itself. And it goes without saying that the vehicle moves in the desired direction according to the steering movement at the wheel. But the technologies behind it are complex and have become increasingly sophisticated over the past decades. The developers at Audi are working on the perfect combination of driving dynamics and comfort. At the same time, assistive steering functions offer added safety and support in everyday driving - when changing lanes, swerving and parking. As a result, the steering wheel is increasingly becoming a communication unit, moving away from being just a steering wheel to becoming a high-tech command center.
