maximize engagement area of the thick
and strong drive belt for improved heat
dissipation and add durability

Electric Power Steering (EPS)
-The EPS system reduces
steering effort, especially at low speeds
when turning effort is greatest
-The electric motor’s inertia
significantly reduces bump steer and
kickback to the steering wheel caused
by shocks to the wheels for a more comfortable
and controlled ride
-Input from vehicle speed and torque
sensors determine the amount of steering
assistance required from the system’s
motor
-No power steering pump, so there is
no power loss from the engine
-EPS only operates when the engine is
running to keep from draining the battery
