Mercedes-Benz first adopted power steering systems in its mass-produced models in 1958. The system was first used in the Mercedes-Benz 300 Series sedan (W189), a high-end luxury sedan favored by aristocrats and business elites.

Specifically, Honda first equipped its North American version of the Honda Accord with a hydraulic power steering system as standard in 1982, which was the time node when Honda first adopted power steering technology on a large scale.

Based on the above-mentioned steering systems, the most advanced steering system is undoubtedly the steering-by-wire system (Steer-by-Wire, SbW). The steer-by-wire system is a fully electronic steering system that does not rely on mechanical connections.

The hydraulic pump is the core component of the hydraulic power steering system, which provides power assistance by pressurizing hydraulic oil. If the hydraulic pump fails, such as internal wear or insufficient pressure, the hydraulic system will not work effectively.

Rack and pinion steering systems can be traced back to the 1930s. In 1932, British car manufacturer Aston Martin first applied the rack and pinion system to its racing models. This design performed well in the racing field at that time, especially in terms of steering accuracy and sensitivity.

New energy vehicles, especially pure electric vehicles, usually choose electric power steering systems when designing their power steering systems. The main reasons are as follows: Energy matching of electric power steering systems Efficient energy use Simple structure and high reliability

Hydraulic power steering rack (HPS Rack) is the most common type of steering system in traditional fuel vehicles. Its core is to provide steering assistance through hydraulic pressure. This rack usually works with a hydraulic pump, oil pipe, valve and hydraulic oil tank.

For those car fans who pursue the purest and most direct driving feeling, the mechanical steering system is undoubtedly the best choice. It provides the most realistic road feedback and control feeling, and is suitable for sports driving with high requirements on road conditions.
