In a vehicle having a single front and rear mounted driven and steerable wheel or track, 360 DEG steering is possible by applying drive about its steering axes. The torque developed by this drive is balanced out in the steering system, hence preventing the vehicle from being difficult to steer in one direction and easy in the other direction. This vehicle is capable of turning about its own center and requires no differential. The system is particularly adaptable to a small snowmobile and will greatly enhance its steering, traction and braking characteristics. Two centrally mounted skis are placed on the vehicle in a quadrilateral fashion to provide lateral stability.
