This power steering unit is an electrically-driven kit ideal for electric vehicles. Without the need for power steering fluid, this makes for a low-maintenance kit. Take advantage of a significantly more efficient system for EVs by eliminating the need to constantly run a power steering pump.
This unit includes a torque sensor to determine how much steering assist is needed, and it varies assist according to speed. At low speeds, more assist is provided for easy turning during parking maneuvers; at high speeds, less assist is provided for improved road feel and directional stability.
The motor assists steering through a worm shaft and reduction gear installed in the steering column housing.
