In small towns and cities, we need a lightweight vehicle to travel from one place to another. Every time we use a vehicle that has complex component assembly which uses a lot more amount of fuel because of the overall weight, and also because of complex steering systems, we have to put up some extra steering effort to give direction to our vehicle. Using a simple steering mechanism/system results in overall weight reduction, low manufacturing cost and low maintenance cost for the user. In this paper, the focus has been put on the simple design of the steering system based on Ackerman steering mechanism considering the factors that are related to the overall weight of the vehicle, driver’s safety, easy maintenance and low cost.
