Super TestCar reviews - Mercedes-Benz - CLK-class - CLK430 Elegance coupeMercedes-Benz modelsResearch Mercedes-Benz Steering23 Oct 2001 By BRUCE NEWTON THE CLK relies on recirculating ball steering, unlike the new C-class and S-class, which use rack-and-pinion systems. The recirculating ball set-up is getting a bit dated now and will be turfed when the new CLK makes its debut in 2003. The system works well enough but even Mercedes concedes the recirculating ball system is not quite as sharp as its rack-and-pinion set-up. Did you know?The turning circle is 10.7m and the steering requires 2.9 turns from lock to lockAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen |
