UNTIL TODAY the best rear suspension setup I had ever seen was the 1990's Mercedes W140 chassis - it was a work of art - THIS IS BETTER And the merc only has a diff and driveshafts in it - this has 2 motors and the inverters and everything - AND it produces more power in the back axle than the Merc did with a 6L V12 up front in a package not much bigger than the differential.

@VoxelLoop - Yeah - each motor is no bigger than the diff on an S600. I have seen coke can sized high voltage DC motors that are 12kw or 15kw - they are utterly insane power density.

@grahameida7163 - Exactly the same suspension unit as the S600 and yes very very similar to this unit. Only this is packaged even more neatly.
