Abstract

The invention relates to a vehicle steering system comprising a steering wheel, a first and a second steering assembly. The steering assemblies each comprise a steering linkage mechanically connected to a road wheel and a support motor. The steering wheel is configured to control a steering angle of a first road wheel via a first support motor actuating a first steering linkage. A processing circuitry is configured to receive, from the first steering assembly, input signals comprising one or more steering parameter values measured for the first steering assembly. Based on the received first input signals, the processing circuitry is configured to calculate a desired steering angle of a second road wheel and to send control signals to a second support motor so as to actuate a second steering linkage such that the desired steering angle of the second road wheel is obtained. A method is also disclosed.
