| Summary: | One of the factors in achieving high energy efficiency in terms of fuel consumption of a car is the need to have simple and light steering system, and a three wheeled car is one of the ways to achieve this. This project attempts to design a steering linkage mechanism for a three wheeled vehicle, with two in front and one rear wheel, rear driven. Analytical and critical studies were made prior and parallel with the design to assure stability and achieved required requirements. Steering system must provide the means to steer the vehicle with stability, predictability, and enough cornering radial. Studies include analytical and critical evidence to prove the designs are logical and able to maximize the car‟s efficiency. |
