 .      Technology used (‘Active Chassis System’)

Active Chassis System means it is available to steer all 4 tires by adding rear-wheel steering system. The idea, which Honda has been a big proponent of in the past, disappeared from showrooms until Porsche equipped its new 911 GT3 with rear-wheel steering in 2014

.      System operation

a)      The rear wheels can turn up to 3.5˚ in either direction

b)      This system boosts

·         low-speed mobility (in effect shortening the wheelbase)  

·         high-speed stability (by lengthening it)

                               Benefit of technology used

·         making the full-size four-door easier to move in tight spaces and city driving scenarios 

·         easier to drive in low speed scenarios

·         Active-on-demand all-wheel drive is also part of the Active Chassis System, making the most of handling and stability in all weather conditions

·         Cadillac’s rear-wheel steering system doesn’t just make the car easier to drive in low speed scenarios, it also increase agility at higher speeds.
