In addition to superior axles and suspension, the new SEAT Toledo also boasts a class leading power steering system. The new EPS unit not only delivers comfortable and precise, speed-dependant steering assistance, it also saves you 0.2 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres! EPS consists of an electric motor, steering torque sensors, speed sensors and a central control unit. Using its sensors to calculate the speed of the car and the amount of effort the driver is applying to the steering wheel, the system can then determine precisely the level of assistance it should give to the driver. This results in smooth, exact and consistent steering that is unrivalled by the competition. And, as EPS only activates when needed, it minimises the fuel consumption significantly compared to hydraulic systems.
