| comments | unequaled
control on snow and ice, or uneven terrain; 42-percent more torque for unparalleled acceleration and shorter braking distances compared to conventional vehicles; by-wire technology: braking, steering and other control systems will operate electronically like in an air plane; though the 'Sequel' is equiped with additional braking and steering controls for backup |
