I think most reasonable explanation is likely very much increased torque and rather poor traction control leading to common slipping. Which directly wears tires

I think most reasonable explanation is likely very much increased torque and rather poor traction control leading to common slipping. Which directly wears tires.
Hybrid vehicles generally have less torque so they have less this type of wear. Unless driven purposefully aggressively.
Clear solution would be to limit acceleration of vehicles and mandate traction control that limits this type of wear.
- pjc50 1y agoI'm surprised EVs don't all have traction control since there's already got to be a computerized control loop for motor drive at that power level. And slipping is an obvious problem when max torque is at zero RPM.
- Ekaros 1y agoOne reason could be to get those low 0-100 rates. When actually from 0 to low speed part of that really isn't important in most scenarios. 60 or 80 to 100 sure. But 0 to 20 not so much.
