An electric power steering apparatus ( 10 ) includes a steering wheel ( 21 ), a steering shaft ( 22 ), a rack-and-pinion mechanism ( 25 ), and a rack shaft ( 26 ) connected to the steering wheel through the steering shaft and the rack-and-pinion mechanism. The rack shaft is connected to vehicle wheels ( 29, 29 ). The electric power steering apparatus further includes a first electric motor ( 41 ) for producing a motive power to be applied to the steering shaft, and a second electric motor ( 51 ) for producing a motive power to be applied to the rack shaft.
