Hand force: identical Sensitivity: distinct realization of steering wheel angle
-> no clearance Shock absorbance: disturbances of high frequency
-> comfort and safety Automatic self alignment: rest in straight-ahead position
self alignment Passive safety: steering components are not allowed
to intrude into cabin, air bag
Steering kinematics: no reaction of steering system
during compression (straight-ahead
position, concept later Width requirement of vehicle: specifications (StVZO 32) Space requirements: good space utilization, crash Construction efforts: as simple as possible (economic)
