{{short description|Vehicle safety and advanced power steering system}} '''Dynamic steering response''' ('''DSR''') is a vehicle safety and advanced power steering system that can counteract unstable or difficult steering that may be caused by external forces such as strong [[crosswind]]s or uneven roads by giving proper steering assistance from the steering gear.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|last=Cannon|first=Jason|date=2019-09-19|title=Test drive: Volvo Dynamic Steering|url=https://www.ccjdigital.com/test-drive-volvo-dynamic-steering/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200130233408/https://www.ccjdigital.com/test-drive-volvo-dynamic-steering/ |archive-date=2020-01-30 |access-date=|website=Commercial Carrier Journal}}</ref> DSR assists the driver by determining the correct [[steering ratio]] in a vehicle's [[power steering]] system to provide steering corrections to stabilize vehicles and increase safety. The system determines the steering ratio (the amount of turning of the steering wheel to the amount of turning of the vehicle’s wheels) based on factors such as current road conditions and vehicle speed. This system works by having an [[electric motor]] attached to the steering gear of a vehicle reducing or increasing the [[torque]] needed to steer based on the situation.<ref name=":0" /> Thus, less physical input from the driver is required creating a more comfortable driving experience overall.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=2020-01-14|title=STUDY SHOWS CLEAR BENEFITS FOR THE DRIVER WITH VOLVO DYNAMIC STEERING|url=https://www.volvobuses.com/en-en/news/2020/jan/study-shows-clear-benefits-for-the-driver.html|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200927171817/https://www.volvobuses.com/en-en/news/2020/jan/study-shows-clear-benefits-for-the-driver.html |archive-date=2020-09-27 |access-date=|website=Volvo Buses}}</ref> DSR was first implemented in [[SEAT]]’s 2002 León Cupra R.<ref>{{Cite web|author=SEAT NEWS|date=2003-07-03|title=New SEAT León Cupra R|url=https://www.vwvortex.com/artman/publish/temp_1233097140.shtml|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=|website=VWVortex}}</ref> But according to Acumen Research and Consulting, as of February 04, 2020, among the companies that have manufactured DSR systems, “the leading competitors are [[BMW]], [[Ford Motor Company|Ford Motor]], [[Volvo]], ZF-TRW, [[Audi|AUDI]], [[Bosch (company)|Bosch]], [[Denso|Denso Corporation]], [[Danfoss]], and Knorr-Bremse”.<ref>{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=2020-02-04|title=Automotive Dynamic Steering Market Size Worth Around US$ 2,017.4 Mn by 2026|url=https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/02/05/1979935/0/en/Automotive-Dynamic-Steering-Market-Size-Worth-Around-US-2-017-4-Mn-by-2026.html#:~:text=Some%20of%20the%20leading%20competitors,the%20automotive%20dynamic%20steering%20industry.|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=|website=GlobeNewswire}}</ref> But DSR’s implementation is not limited to commercial cars as buses and industrial vehicles have taken advantage of the technology as well.
