ELECTRONIC STEERING RACK (EPS)
This vehicle also has an electronically controlled power steering rack that has
been developed to work with the DYNAMIX DV system in multiple ways:
• This power steering has modes that
adjust the power steering performance
to the DYNAMIX DV ride setting.
• Damping logic allows for the EPS to
maximize assist levels.
• The power steering logic was
specifically tuned to counteract hits
coming from the vehicle wheels and
isolate the driver from feeling these
torque spikes in their hands.
These electronically controlled systems work together to provide a full vehicle
ride and handling mode that can be easily selected by the driver.
DYNAMIX DV RIDE MODES
There are four Ride Modes with pre-defined suspension and steering settings to
tailor the ride and handling to known uses and conditions. The Ride Modes are
summarized below.

DESCRIPTION
Baja Mode High compression
and low rebound
damping for large
and aggressive
suspension events.
Good feeling of the
front wheels with
excellent bump
rejection.
Rock Mode High compression
and low rebound with
angle based damping
adjustments for
maneuvering through
rockier terrain. At
higher vehicle
speeds, damping
becomes similar to
Comfort Mode.
High assist level and
bump rejection for
low steering effort
when maneuvering in
rocks.
