Angled wheel arches add appeal while

wheels, move to steer the vehicle, but
at much smaller
angles.
At high speeds the rear axle steering
angle is in the same direction as the front
wheels (in - phase steering), elongating the wheelbase up to 600 mm for increased stability and ride comfort as well as optimum driving dynamics.
The rear steering
angle varies up to + / - 3.0 degrees, according to vehicle speed and driving mode selected:
at low speeds the rear - axle steering
angle is opposite to that of the front
wheels (counter-phase steering), effectively shortening the wheelbase up to 600 mm for increased agility and a reduced turning circle for increased maneuverability.
