The invention relates to a vehicle comprising front and rear axles, one steering mechanism (6) per axle, comprising a cylinder (7) having a body and two pistons, each associated with a rod and dividing the body into a central chamber extending between the pistons and two end chambers, said vehicle comprising a first configuration wherein the wheels (4, 5) of a single axle extend in parallel planes, and a second O-shaped configuration wherein the wheels (4, 5) are arranged on a circle, and a configuration selector. The vehicle comprises, for fluid connection of the cylinders (7) of the steering mechanisms (6) to the source or sources (17, 18) of pressurised fluid, a first circuit (15) of fluid active in the first configuration, and a second circuit (16) of fluid active in the second configuration, the second circuit (16) being, for the cylinder (7) of each steering mechanism (6), configured so that when the central chamber of said cylinder forms an inlet chamber, the end chambers of said cylinder form exhaust chambers, and vice versa, this second circuit (16) of fluid being equipped with a flow divider (25).
