Drive-by-wire,
DbW,
by-wire, or
x-by-wire technology in the automotive industry replaces the traditional mechanical and hydraulic
control systems with electronic control systems using
electromechanical actuators and
human-machine interfaces such as pedal and steering feel emulators. Hence, the traditional components such as the
steering column, intermediate shafts, pumps, hoses, fluids, belts, coolers and
brake boosters and master cylinders are eliminated from the vehicle.
Examples include
electronic throttle control and
brake-by-wire.
is there any way to get rid of that electronic throttle control??
