    Need a camera from the other side too so we can see what wheels are spinning and not. To determine how well it works. Or not.
    Could also try the cars on a set of rollers.... Dont know how expensive those are.. but cant be too much.
    Completely pathetic results by the way, from both cars.... I mean, what's the problem? Why dont the other wheels move? They even have 2 motors I suppose? So theres not even the regular center diff problem to overcome.....
    A tip for the manufacturers..... "IF wheelspin THEN increase break pressure".. and in this case "IF no wheelspin THEN decrease brake pressure/increase power"
    Try those highly advanced formulas for once. I wont charge you for it.

      Apparently F1 race car aerodynamics testing has shown these dual spoilers to be more effective at providing slip. That’s why we see it on those cars. But I just heard this somewhere, can’t confirm.

    "Unscientific". Yup, for sure. But thanks for the demo anyway. Best thing for me, seems to be the "grip" mode, which as near as I can tell from your demo hands the throttle control over to the car. Since correctly modulating the throttle is one of the hardest things for a human driver when dealing with slippery conditions, this seems like a great feature to have, and I've never heard of it in any other car.
    That said, end of the day, the biggest factor in dealing with snow is (as no doubt you know) the tires, and any tire not actually true snow tire is going to struggle, especially in warmer conditions like here. If the grip's not there, there's just nothing the car can do, even with AWD.
    Smart isn't available in the US, and I see lots of other reasons to avoid the BZ4X/Solterra, so probably neither of these cars are going to be considered for a future purchase, for me anyway. But I still found this "unscientific" demo interesting to watch, and I'm glad you made it. :)

    It''s unacceptable for dual motor EVs not to have a function for locked all wheels, as it's all digital.
    Car makers doing the bare minimum lazy ass scumbags or hell even worse, doing the Electronic Arts move, to take out functionality from the complete software only to sell it as an extra function.

    toyota have been reducing their quality for over a decade now. All they are working towards is "optimizing" their parts to oblivion so that they can predict and force you to visit the dealer/service. Everything is designed to star failing just when the warranty expires. Or earlier if the warranty doesn't cover it.

    - Caught hiding emissions documentation for their hybrids (wonder why...) - Guilty. Paid $180M to cover the story.
    - Multiple recalls for safety failures. - Guilty. Paid to cover the story.
    - Receiving $7,891,352,312 in subsidies and grants just in the US.
    - Got into a deal with the Saudis and received billions in funding to keep selling gas vehicles. The deal is to fool the African market with gas cars so that this boosts petrol consumption.
    - Has partnerships with Australia to import hydrogen from coal and gas.
    Toyshita is the most greedy and anti-consumer company out there.
