Abstract
A steering apparatus includes first and second electric motors that rotate a steering shaft via speed reduction mechanisms, and the motors being disposed to face each other. The first electric motor, a first motor pulley, a second motor pulley and the second electric motor are arranged in order in a rotation axis direction. When a first system electric actuator (including a first nut and the first electric motor) and a second system electric actuator (including a second nut and the second electric motor) are provided to the common steering shaft, in a first axis direction, the first and second nuts can be arranged close to each other, reducing sizes of the peripheries of the nuts.
