ABSTRACT – Production automobiles very never oversteer; instead, they are built to understeer. A car that could automatically correct for understeer or oversteer would provide the driver with almost neutral steering in a variety of driving situations. The implementation of four-wheel steering is a significant endeavor by automobile design experts to achieve almost neutral steering. Driving would be extremely difficult in scenarios like low-speed maneuvering, parking, and driving in crowded cities with limited space because of the vehicle’s bigger wheelbase and track width. Thus, a mechanism that produces a smaller turning radius is needed, and a four-wheel steering mechanism can do this.

        This project’s primary goal is to make the back wheels rotate counterclockwise to the front wheels. To do this, a clever mechanism was created that has an interrelated turning mechanism that powers the turning of the entire vehicle and all of its trailing carts using a single engine, ensuring that the trailing cart travels precisely the same path as the main cart. The ability of the prototype to corner was evaluated. It facilitates tighter bends and better handling for the car. The turning radius is reduced with the use of this system. The suggested design has significantly increased the car’s performance.
