2011 Forester, 34.8' which is rather surprising for a small SUV/crossover.

The jeep (two door): it's own front axle.

The vx220: five kilometers.

36' for the Camry ( Thanks, MT! )

37.4' for the CX-9. I have noticed how tight that thing turns. Not bad for a big-ass SUV.

I measure the turning radius in my Tacoma by how many times I have to reverse, forward, reverse, forward, not in diameter.

Usually it's a few times.

Using only MS Paint, I've tried to illustrate my meaning....

Although, upon further reflection, I should subtract the length from nose to front contact patch, so I amend my measurement to 24.6'

HOOOOARK.

37'11 for my SAAB 9000. That is not very good. It, er, didn't seem that bad to me? :\

40.4 - Which sounds like a lot, until you see the vehicle.

34.8 right? 17.4 feet is tiny.

My Neon is ~35ft. I blame the long wheelbase that comes with the "cab-forward" design. My old Geo Metro, however, was such a breeze to maneuver with an unbelievable 30 foot turning circle.

My SRT-4 is listed at a stupid 41ft. U-turns are a huge pain in the ass.

I would imagine the maximum steering lock is limited by the wide tires and bodykit.
