A method for steering a vehicle that comprises a steering system with a steering wheel and a front axle as well as a rear axle with wheels, wherein it is provided that a direction of the vehicle is adjusted manually by a driver of the vehicle by adjustment of a steering wheel angle of the steering wheel, as a result of which, for the wheels of at least one of the axles, a steering angle is adjusted, which is obtained from the steering wheel angle plus a superposition angle, wherein, through an automatically adjustable steering ratio for the wheels of at least one of the axles, a ratio of the steering wheel angle to the steering angle for the wheels is set, wherein the vehicle travels into a curve on a circular path with a radius at a speed with a first value, wherein a steering wheel angle is adjusted by the driver.

Method and steering system for steering a vehicle

A method for steering a vehicle, having a front axle with steerable wheels, a rear axle with steerable wheels, having a steering system including as its components a steering wheel operable by the driver and at least one automatic steering module, wherein a manual primary steering intervention is undertaken by the driver of the vehicle for the steering wheel, on the basis of which a manual primary steering reaction occurs for the wheels of the front axle, wherein on the basis of the manual primary steering reaction at least one automatic secondary steering intervention is undertaken with the at least one automatic steering module for the wheels of at least one axle.

Method for steering a vehicle

The disclosure relates to a method, a device and a motor vehicle for controlling at least one vehicle system of the motor vehicle during a drive, wherein each vehicle system is respectively adapted to perform a driving maneuver of the motor vehicle and for each vehicle system a control responsibility determines, in which proportion a driver and a driver assistance system of the motor vehicle each controls the vehicle system, the method comprising the steps of: providing an assignment specification with which a control responsibility is assigned for different driving situations in each case for each vehicle system; identifying an instantaneous driving situation while driving and determining the respectively assigned control responsibility in each vehicle system according to the assignment specification; receiving control instructions from the driver and from the driver assistance system for each vehicle system; and for each vehicle system, superposing control instructions from the driver and from the driver assistance system intended for said vehicle system in accordance with the control responsibility.

Method for controlling at least one vehicle system of a motor vehicle during a trip, and device and vehicle

A method for control of a rear-axle steering of a motor vehicle. A steering angle of wheels of a rear axle is set. Upon reaching a predetermined lateral acceleration of the motor vehicle, the steering angle and/or the gradient of the steering angle of the wheels of the rear axle is limited as a function of a coefficient of friction of a roadway surface on which the motor vehicle is moving.
