Also - when I first heard about the tri-motor Model S Plaid, I thought they might hook them both up to the existing rear axle, but geared differently. One geared lower for low end torque, and the other higher so it pulls harder at high speed. This way you can avoid needing a 2-speed gearbox like the Taycan.
However, I'm thinking this is not worth it because
- It's not worth losing out on the other advantages (torque vectoring, diffs suck ass, etc)-
- With two motors you have so damn much torque you can gear them both higher (no point in spinning wheels) so the usable torque may be shifted high enough that a gearbox is truly not needed.
