One of the most noticeable features of a power-assisted steering system is how light the steering wheel feels. Without this system, the steering wheel would be heavy and difficult to turn, especially when driving straight. You wouldn’t really feel any difference in handling while going straight, but as soon as you start turning, the contrast becomes very clear. This is especially true for larger or heavier vehicles where the effort required to steer without assistance can be quite significant.

Power steering, commonly known as EPS (Electric Power Steering), works by providing assistance based on your speed. When you're driving at higher speeds, such as 160 km/h, the system reduces the amount of assistance, making the steering feel more direct and stable. This helps the vehicle maintain a straight path with minimal input from the driver. However, at lower speeds—like when parking or maneuvering in tight spaces—the system provides more assistance, making the steering wheel feel much lighter and easier to handle.

This adaptive feature ensures that the driver experiences optimal control and comfort in different driving conditions. Whether you're cruising on the highway or navigating through a crowded parking lot, power steering helps reduce driver fatigue and improves overall handling. It's an essential component in modern vehicles that enhances both safety and convenience.
