What do mean when you talk about drive-by-wire?Pretty much every car now is drive by wire.
Good post, I always have gotten confused by this. In my opinion a true Drive By Wire vehicle would be like controlling you car through a video game remote control. And if I understand it correctly, there is still some mechanical relationship between what you do in the driver's seat and the response of the car for even new vehiclesWhat do mean when you talk about drive-by-wire?
If you mean steering, I don't know of any.
IF you mean throttle, sure, but I wouldn't call that drive-by-wire.
Dang you beat my response, thanks for the clear up on the terminology.For clarification:
Drive By Wire = electronic throttle.
As opposed to the manual throttle, which is driven by a cable.
Everyone else does.What do mean when you talk about drive-by-wire?

Don't use a tractor trailer's acceleration time to pass judgement on all turbos, catch what I am trying to say?I prefer the cable, my dad's 05 explorer takes like a second or so for the engine to rev up once you hit the gas. :\
I just know that my 97 S-10's throttle response time is a hellova lot better than the 05 exploder.Don't use a tractor trailer's acceleration time to pass judgement on all turbos, catch what I am trying to say?
Go drive a C6 Corvette with DBW. Sports cars with DBW are going to be far different than gas-guzzling Earth Destroyers designed for soccer moms with a single child who is not even out of a car seat yet.
Apples and oranges, my friend.I just know that my 97 S-10's throttle response time is a hellova lot better than the 05 exploder.
Never said it was.Apples and oranges, my friend.
DBW is not your enemy.![]()
