The turning radius of a vehicle is the diameter of the tightest circle it can turn, and it is determined by a variety of design parameters such as wheelbase length, axle width, and steering system design. Midsized cars typically have a turning radius of 34 to 38 feet, depending on the model.
A reduced turning radius equates to a more manoeuvrable vehicle when it comes to a specific vehicle. The amount of manoeuvrability sought is governed by the intended use and the qualities that usage requires; small city cars, such as Smart cars, can have turning radii as small as 23.9 feet, while huge trucks used to move freight can have turning radii of over 50 feet.
The Chevrolet Malibu, Volkswagen CC, Toyota Avalon, and Nissan Altima, which are in the centre of AutoChannel.com’s 2015 and 2016 sedan turning radius list, turn with a radius of 37.4 feet. The intermediate range of pickup trucks has a turning radius of 49.2 feet and includes various models and years of the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD and GMC Sierra 2500HD.
Other vehicles, such as luxury cars and utility vehicles, have varying turning radii, and the range of values changes year to year.
