Normally a 4WD copes with loss of traction to wheels by locking the diff, so that power is then split evenly between the wheel in the air and the one still on the ground. EVs are much smarter than that, you can see it here in the Shark. Electric motors have infinite flexibility with torque, so the car directs energy precisely to each wheel independently, as required. Notice what he also says about how this creates a blissfully quiet off-roading experience, rather than the loud revving tractor noises of a diesel 4WD. You get to actually appreciate what you’re there for, the great outdoors, while having much more grunt as a bonus.
