Conventional torque vectoring systems use a set of planetary gears either side of the differential to achieve only very low levels of over-speeding.
Not exact matches
The Concept One does lack the soundtrack and the dramatic power delivery of a
conventional supercar, but in the way it accelerates and in the way its
torque vectoring system picks apart a corner it is enormously entertaining to drive quickly.
GKN Driveline's Twinster
torque vectoring solution replaces a
conventional differential with a twin - clutch
system that precisely adjusts the
torque delivery to each wheel.
The precise controllability of the
torque generated by the electric motor drives together with their fast dynamics allows a continuous and seamless actuation of
torque -
vectoring, which is a significant improvement over
conventional stability control
systems found on current production vehicles.
In recent years, a modified Volvo XC90 was created as a test bed for the single - speed eTwinster
system, while a BMW M3 has been taken apart by GKN engineers to replace its
conventional rear differential with a mechanical Twinster unit — the first setup that shows the benefits of twin - clutch
torque vectoring and «true» sailing functionality in a purely rear - wheel drive vehicle.
