Torque Vectoring, Without the Marketing Language

Torque vectoring is often described as if it were a single feature. In practice it's a control loop — a continuous negotiation between steering angle, throttle position, yaw rate, and wheel slip, resolved up to 500 times per second.

On VANTA R1 and GT, torque vectoring happens at the axle level: front and rear motors are commanded independently, but the two wheels on a given axle still share torque through an open or mechanically-limited differential.

On VANTA X, the rear axle uses two independent motors — one per wheel. That allows true wheel-level vectoring, which matters more on a taller, heavier vehicle where body roll works against rotation.

RS uses a traditional mechanical limited-slip differential instead of electronic torque vectoring. That's a deliberate character choice: RS is built for drivers who want to feel the differential working, not have its behavior smoothed away by software.
