I’ve never seen an ICE car need two engines to drive all four wheels. Why do EVs need 2 motors? Wouldn’t a transmission be cheaper than another motor?

    It’s pretty easy to make a small, high power electric motor and they can be easily synchronized or adjusted for traction control. It frees up space where a drive shaft would go to instead put the battery there.
