ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a variable steering gear ratio apparatus adapted to adjust the steering gear ratio based on the vehicle speed and steering angle, thereby facilitating steering manipulation by applying a small steering gear ratio when the vehicle comes to a parked state, the vehicle speed is low, or the steering angle is large. By applying a large steering gear ratio when the vehicle speed is high or the steering angle is small, the steering stability of the vehicle improves.
