Cool but not the system I'm thinking of: A complete real time tweaking of per wheel outputs based on live slip/velocity/momentum for perfect AWD.

- EmbarrassedFuel 8y agoIn addition to the sls this idea is deployed to some extent in IC cars as well: electronic limited slip differentials can send continuously varying torque to each wheel, see the Porsche 918 spyder (combo electric and IC) or the Nissan GT-R which has a famously odd driving characteristic as a result of the computer controlled torque vectoring.
