The Scoop
A hidden rear-wheel drive mode has been discovered in a Korean electric vehicle. Enabling it disables stability control and is intended for off-road or testing purposes only; not for public roads.
The Context
The discovery of this hidden feature highlights the increasing complexity of modern electric vehicles. Manufacturers often include capabilities that are not officially advertised or intended for general use. This also raises questions about software control and the potential for aftermarket modifications to unlock additional features. The EV market is highly competitive, and manufacturers are constantly seeking ways to differentiate their vehicles.
