Abstract
In steering system and method for an automotive vehicle, a reaction force actuator is configured to provide a steering reaction force for the operation inputting section on the basis of a reaction force command value which accords with a state of steerable wheels, a steering actuator is configured to drive the steering mechanism on the basis of a turning angle command value which accords with a steering angle of the operation inputting section, a turning angle correction value setting section sets a turning angle correction value on the basis of the reaction force command value, and a turning angle command value correcting section subtracts the turning angle correction value from the turning angle command value, the turning angle correction value being set in such a manner that, as the reaction force command value becomes larger, the turning angle correction value becomes larger.
