The vehicle steering system is an integral part of the vehicle dynamics of the automobile. While conventional steering system can perfectly perform the work of guiding the vehicle along straight line or curved paths, it is ridden with inherent drawbacks. These drawbacks include increased turning circle radius, reduction in high speed turning stability and the inability to perform a zero turn steer. Under steer and over steer characteristics have also not helped advocate conventional steering systems. The work proposed in this paper, deals with the inculcation of Crab Steer, Four-Wheel Steer and Zero turn steer into one comprehensive steering system package using electric motors. Crab steer helps with high speed turning ability. Four wheel steer turns the wheels in the opposite direction and aids with reduced low speed turning circles. Zero steer enables the vehicle to turn about its vertical axis so that, the vehicle can be maneuvered at dead-ends and tight spaces without much effort upon request. The proposed system is seen to greatly reduce the values of Turning Circle Radius. A reduction of 30 percent was observed during the simulation. The application of this work is endless. It can be of help to the agriculture and the commercial industry. Tractors, All terrain vehicles and off-roaders can now have a wider range of steering ability. Passenger cars can benefit with high stability lane change and easier navigation around parking lots.
