Direct Adaptive Steering — available in the new INFINITI Q50, as well as other models — is a feature for the people. Utilizing incredible world’s-first technology, it allows you, the operator, to fully customize your commuting experience with three selectable modes. Depending on your mood, conditions on the road, or both; you can personalize effort and response by choosing either a Heavy, Standard, or Light setting.
The innovation is made possible by removing the mechanical connection between the steering wheel and tires and replacing it with an electronic wire system. This adjustment allows for instantaneous motorist input that can be digitally processed and adjusted up to 1,000 times per second.
This confidence-inspiring system is entirely unaffected by the kickback and forced movement on conventional columns. Instead, it gradually requires more effort with increased speeds and G-forces. The result is seamless acceleration, fluid turning, and stable road-holding around corners.
