Super TestCar reviews - Citroen - Xsara - VTR coupeCitroen modelsSteering11 Apr 2002 THE Xsara is steered via a rack and pinion system with variable power assistance. The steering wheel adjusts for both height and reach. The VTR goes from lock to lock in 2.5 turns and has a 10.7-metre turning circle. The rear axle employs a system called passive rear steering, which is designed to rid the rear wheels of the tendency to steer in the opposite direction to the front wheels when loaded up, and reduces the risk of the car becoming unsettled during cornering. Compared to the previous coupe, which we did not get in Australia, this car's front track has been widened by 10mm and the rear by 12mm. Did you know?Citroen has campaigned the Xsara in world championship rallying for several years, scoring its first win in the Rally of Catalunya in 1999 when it was only a two-wheel drive up against four-wheel drives like the Subaru Impreza WRX and Ford Focus WRCAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen |
