I’ve worked in this area. :-). The real advantage of TC in an EV is the predictable and smooth power output, combined with declining torque as RPM rises. It makes an effective TC calibration a relative breeze.

He’s missed a big one: perfect traction control. With an electric motor you can modulate torque to 1% or better, 20,000 times per second. Individually to each wheel, if you have dual or quad motors.

Oh, you mean the world where Pan Am and Atari still exist?

Oh, I’m sorry, are there actual human beings living on Jupiter like there were in America in 1492?

No no. These are based on spy shots and photos from a leaked dealer presentation (check it out).

So this ain’t just some random rendering.

Cars that have swallowed other cars...

The LED one is stupid. “String of pearls” headlights are from 10 years ago. Of course modern ones look better.

You sure do torque a lot.

You can have four figure HP, but without much torque you won’t get moving.

Power is the energy it took to read a loquacious explanation, over time.

Even mentioning the IDx still induces a small amount of rage at Nissan.

Atkinson Cycle — an engine with a compression stroke lower than its expansion stroke.

So what’s the actual physics behind why having a (compression ratio):(expansion ratio) of less than 1:1 is more efficient? Is it to reduce compressive heating? It is to get the expanded exhaust pressure down to atmospheric, to avoid losing energy to it? Something else entirely?

how long until a red neck can afford a Bugatti Chiron?

This guy has clearly Hadi-nuff of BMW.

That right there is a poorly executed high five if I ever saw one.

No.

Ah, but he would also have been driving on the other side of the road, which means he would have likely missed the pole entirely due to the different trajectory. ;)

They probably had to disable the electronic nannies to do a burnout.
