In addition, the gear ratio unit is coupled to the rear axle steering system in such a way that the front axle steering ratio is adjustable as a function of a rear axle steering angle. Further, a motor vehicle having such an all-wheel steering system is discussed. Also presented is a method of operating an all-wheel steering system for a motor vehicle.
