lock-to-lock
Full wheel rotation
Lock-to-lock describes the full rotation of a steering wheel from one extreme position to the other—turning it all the way left, then all the way right, or vice versa.
The measurement matters for comparing vehicle maneuverability: fewer turns lock-to-lock means quicker steering response.
The sports car is two and a half turns lock-to-lock.
