Mazda Protege Steering Wheel

The essence of the Mazda Protege Steering Wheel is to synchronise the movements of the driver's hands into directional commands so that the front wheels of the car move in the same direction smoothly. The Steering Wheel is designed to be strong but fast-reacting, linked to the steering gear either by direct mechanical means, by hydraulic means, or, in the new production cars, by electrical means, and each way reduces the amount of effort required at the wheel. Other Mazda versions of the compact applied in the past were based mainly on rack and pinion hardware; mid-generation changes introduced hydraulic power steering on the rim to make it easier to turn, and the newer versions resemble most modern cars by including computer-controlled electric assistance, the primary distinction between the successive styles. In any arrangement, slight rotation of the wheel would mean that both the front tires rotate together, providing the driver with precise and confidence-giving control. Wear may creep in with constant Steering Wheel use, and it causes vibration, stiffness, or weird noises that make the handling more difficult. The Mazda Protege wheels have safety as a priority, and they can easily correct themselves in traffic and also endure the stresses that occur on a daily basis. Due to this evolution, the Protege still has a familiar feel that enthusiasts expect, and Mazda is still working on perfecting the interface at the point where hands come into action and motion.
