Congrats, Porsche has discovered the 3-phase AC VFD. The same technology that has been used for decades in diesel electric locomotives. It's well known that it has fantastic anti-slip properties. I'll have to dig up the source but in the transition from DC->AC in rail engines there was a massive increase in traction. The inherent principal of a 3-phase motor means that it will naturally resist overspeed(in the same way EV regen works) unless the VFD drives it faster. [edit] I remembered right, the improvement is on the order of 100% over DC[1] [1] https://www.republiclocomotive.com/ac-traction-vs-dc-traction.html https://www.republiclocomotive.com/ac-traction-vs-dc-tractio...
