Rear Steering

Rear Steering refers to a vehicle’s ability to steer the rear wheels, enhancing handling, stability, and cornering performance. This technology is most commonly found in performance and luxury vehicles. One notable example is Nissan’s HICAS (High Capacity Actively Controlled Steering) system, featured in models like the Skyline GT-R, which dynamically adjusts rear-wheel angles for better agility.

Other manufacturers, such as Honda (4WS), BMW (Integral Active Steering), Mercedes-Benz (Active Rear-Axle Steering), and Porsche (Rear-Axle Steering), have developed similar systems, often integrated into their high-performance and premium models. Rear steering systems can also improve low-speed maneuverability, making them a versatile innovation in automotive design.
