N2  - Open and closed-loop test procedures and subjective rating procedures on vehicle handling properties were developed and used in two experiments with an instrumented car. In the first experiment, the influences of tyre pressure variations on vehicle handling were determined in open-loop tests, i.e. steady-state curve driving, step steering inputs and random steering inputs. Under/oversteering coefficient, yaw gain and response time were used to describe differences in vehicle handling properties. The second experiment dealt with the effects of three different handling characteristics - severe understeering, understeering and oversteering - on straight-lane driving.<p />
