This comment is about the anti-spin technology. Be it Torque Transfer Control (TTC) or Electronic Traction Control(ETC), both have their own drawbacks.
Let me start with TTC, since TTC uses braking to control the spin, the brake-pads are sure to wear-out soon if the person at wheel has a love for “revving”.
If its ETC , since it cuts off power, a major part of the initial-torque is going waste.
Well my thought is “ETC with KERS” (Kinetic Energy Recovery System).
ETC cuts off power and that power can be restored using KERS.
Ultimately there is no need for efficiency to be ‘compromised’.
