A steering wheel to fill the gap between full autonomous driving and manual driving.
This flexible steering wheel is designed to fit Urban Mode/Sport Mode/Autonomous Mode three driving modes.

Autonomous Mode
In L4 autonomous driving mode, the steering wheel retracts to create a more streamlined cockpit experience. If the autonomous system encounters a situation it cannot handle, the steering wheel quickly returns to position, enabling the driver to regain control of the vehicle.

Sport Mode
In sport or high-speed mode, the steering ratio adjusts automatically based on vehicle speed. At low speeds, the steering ratio increases to enable quicker sharp turns, while at high speeds, it decreases to enhance stability and control.

Urban Mode
In urban driving mode, the steering wheel provides a normal steering ratio, suitable for frequent turns and daily driving needs. The upper grip expands, allowing the user to use the full steering wheel, enhancing comfort and control during low-speed driving.
