Question 4223
At low speed, progressive power steering...
- allows more precise control of the vehicle.
- makes the steering stiffer.
- reduces the effort needed to turn the steering wheel to a minimum.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: reduces the effort needed to turn the steering wheel to a minimum.
Progressive power steering varies the assistance according to speed. When you drive slowly, park, or drive along narrow streets, assistance is at its maximum and you can turn the steering wheel with almost no effort. As you gain speed, assistance decreases. The steering wheel feels firmer and control is more precise, but that happens at high speeds.
