EPS in Dugong giving bad road feedback. Tried my friend S Spec Vios, it feels much heavier than my G Spec. I thought there are no different in tuning for this two spec? Complain to Toyota and they help me to initialize the EPS system. Still, the feedback sucks, feel like playing games controller. Honda EPS feels much near to HPS.

I drive peugoet and i love EPS. My hand not so tired when drive on long journey. HPS on other hand when your drive straight 8 hours none stop, can feel your hand very tired.

EPS will have problem when related sensor that connect to EPS got problem, eg: ABS sensor. The steering will be a lot heavy than usual.

I think I have never drove a EPS car before so I have no idea how good it is compared to a HPS car. For those who don't know or want to get up to speed, can read this good article. Now, I'm thinking of the elantra/next K3 as possible purchases, though I would like to know how good/bad the steering is. Correct me if I'm wrong but EPS = like those sim racing wheels right? Also electric powered. I think it all comes down to whatever software is providing the force feedback to the wheel.

Has anyone driven both types of cars and noted the difference? I'm concern with the feedback obtained from EPS. In HPS, the feedback is constant, so if you enter in deep puddle at high speed, steering suddenly feels lighter, but you can feel this. I am not sure EPS can translate this quite well.

Thanks for feedback

Drove both, concultion:

EPS, yes like drving car simulators feedback not constant and no drving feel

HPS, God like.
