Features
Performance/Handling
Electric power-assisted steering (EPAS) is an electric speed-
sensitive steering-assist system that provides light, responsive
steering when parking or less assist at higher speeds for more
confident control.
Contributes to fuel efficiency because the electric motor
operates only when steering assistance is required, as opposed
to the conventional hydraulic pump, which is continuously
powered by the engine
Eliminates noises common with hydraulic systems
Driver-selectable Effort
Offers customer choice of 3 settings:
Comfort Mode provides the least amount of road force felt
‒
in the steering wheel and requires the least amount of
steering effort
Sport Mode provides the most road force felt through the
‒
steering wheel and requires the highest level of steering effort
Standard Mode is a balance between the Comfort and Sport settings
‒
Settings are accessed and programmed via the steering setting toggle switch
Pull-drift Compensation
Uses EPAS to help continuously correct for road irregularities and improve overall steering feel
Continuously "learns" and adapts to steering conditions and compensates for changes that can cause the vehicle to pull left or right
Reduces steering effort required when driving on crowned roads or in heavy side winds
Active Nibble Control
Uses EPAS system sensors to continuously monitor steering wheel inputs
When sensors detect steering wheel rotational vibration — or nibble — EPAS counteracts the nibble and seamlessly cancels it out
Helps reduce the number of minor steering corrections caused by the steering nibbles and helps provide a more comfortable driving
experience
