A hub unit with a steering function includes: a hub bearing that rotatably supports a wheel; a cylindrical turning shaft section extending from an outer ring thereabove and thereunder with the outer ring being located at an outer peripheral surface of an outer race of the hub bearing; a steering actuator that causes the hub bearing to rotate about an axis of the turning shaft section; a unit support member that rotatably supports the hub bearing about the axis on a vehicle body; and an arm section projecting from the outer ring rearward of a vehicle, with the actuator being coupled to the arm section. The actuator includes: an extensible and retractable assembly capable of providing extension or retraction in a direction perpendicular to the axis; and the extensible and retractable assembly is coupled to the arm section through a joint assembly providing two or more directions of freedom.
