Abstract

We have developed a system that can achieve stable cornering performance and nimble handling by independently controlling the left and right of the rear wheel toe angle. In this paper, we describe the basic principle of control, the structure of this system and the achievement of aims. The purpose of this system is achieving the " INOMAMA handling (at-will handling)" that means let the driver handle the car just like a part of own body. It should lead to safety in all driving scenes and to the fun-to-drive.
