This paper described current challenges in the automotive industry regarding the application of steering feel. We describe challenges for objective, subjective and virtual assessment methods as well as for the interaction between these disciplines. The second part focusses an the Audi concept to make use of the strengths of every kind of assessment and to improve the interaction between disciplines. We state that it is crucial to the success of robust and real feeling steering applications to have a team of multi-domain experts rather than the coexistence of highly specialised engineers. The third main part discussed technical issues of consistency with speed, lateral acceleration and ergonomics. We realised a universal philosophy of the trade off in a broad bandwidth of Audis product portfolio. The other aspect in that subchapter was the oncentre behaviour which is even more challenging with EPS and active front steering systems.
