Why does the Aventador S have four-wheel steering?

Though four-wheel steering is not a new idea, it is utterly foreign to the realm of supercars and hypercars like the Aventador S. Lamborghini saw this as wasted potential. They knew that implementing such a steering system into such an insane vehicle would be difficult, but when has Lamborghini ever stopped because something was hard?

By allowing the rear wheels to turn, the Aventador S can deliver an unparalleled level of control whether you are making fast corners or simply small corrections at speed. The rear wheels do not operate like the front wheels though. They have their own logic that adapts to your driving situation.

At low speeds, the rear wheels will turn the opposite direction of your front wheels allowing the Aventador S to achieve a ridiculously tight turning radius. At high speeds, the opposite happens. This makes the car more stable even when going fast.
