Four-wheel steering (4WS) has historical roots, originating in early 20th-century trucks, and is designed to improve vehicle handling by allowing the rear wheels to turn opposite to the front wheels. This enhances maneuverability, particularly in tight spaces, by reducing the turning radius. Although modern active 4WS systems have emerged, they often suffer from poor execution or lack of awareness in the automotive market. Despite challenges in implementation, 4WS is a concept that warrants consideration and innovation to realize its potential benefits in contemporary vehicles.
Four-wheel steering is a concept with historical significance, providing improved maneuverability in vehicles by allowing rear wheels to turn opposite to the front, enhancing tight-space navigation.
Active 4WS systems have evolved since early 20th-century trucks, with modern features aimed at reducing turn radius, contributing to better handling and agility in maneuvering.
