    AWD systems with torque vectoring systems shuffling power front to rear and vice versa and between the two rear wheels on most vehicles seem to be the best.
    Would love to know whether torque vectoring differential is still better than rear wheel/axle steering when driving on bad road conditions ir inclement weather (heavy rain or snow)?

      Thank you as always.
      For example, on a highway in heavy rain, which would be more stable, an AWD car or a car with rear-wheel steering?
      It’s a tough question.
      Perhaps the answer depends on the road conditions and the car’s fundamental performance, such as the tires and suspension.
      What about a car that has both? Like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class or a Bentley.
      I’ll have to give up on that since I’m a bit short on savings. (Haha)

      ​@@sikasabumotorchannelI don't want to keep raising the bar so I am thinking my next car purchase will need to have a torque vectoring differential. Rear wheel steering nice to have and it seems it will be quite reliable but not going to make that a requirement haha.
      Watching most of your videos, I think ICE is becoming too complicated but then again, with EVs the batteries are the Achilles Heel and they have become too dependent on software, which could break the vehicle with the wrong update.

      As you mentioned, ICE has become too complicated. I think it’s probably due to the strict emission regulations (including CO2). But, new technologies always excites me.
      Nevertheless, battery EV technology doesn’t really excite me. I wonder why?
