<p class="pGrey12">Its name is derived from the presence of <strong>two pinions</strong>: the first is connected to the steering column and fitted directly to the steering box rack without artificial filters between the wheels and the driver's hands. The second pinion, also connected directly to the rack, is connected to the electrical actuator which is situated in the engine compartment, thus minimising the risk of impact with the driver's knees in the event of an accident. This <strong>makes it possible to support the driver</strong> during all manoeuvres.</p>
<p class="pGrey12"><br />The benefits are immediate:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<div class="pGrey12"><strong>Direct, sensitive steering in </strong>any driving conditions.</div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="pGrey12">Full integration with vehicle dynamics control systems and with Alfa Romeo DNA</div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="pGrey12">Great driving comfort due to variable <strong>power-assisted steering</strong></div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="pGrey12">Very easy to handle around town and during parking manoeuvres due to a turning circle of just 10.9 m</div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="pGrey12"><strong>Substantial reduction in fuel consumption </strong>of up to 3% compared to a conventional system.</div>
</li>
