German automotive luxury brand Audi has launched the new RS 5, featuring a high-performance plug-in hybrid system and a rear transaxle equipped with electromechanical torque vectoring. Marketed as quattro with Dynamic Torque Control, this system manages transverse torque distribution between the rear wheels within 15 milliseconds.

The system enables torque shifts between the rear wheels regardless of the power applied. Unlike mechanical equivalents, it operates during throttle application, off-throttle states and under braking.

It features a High-Voltage Actuator that uses a water-cooled permanent-magnet 400-volt electric motor providing 8 kW and 40 Nm of output. Overdrive Gears components use actuator torque to transfer differences of up to 2,000 Nm to the driveshafts.

The differential consists of a conventional unit with a low lock percentage that distributes applied torque to the left and right shafts.

The technology is designed to reduce understeer and oversteer by directing torque to the wheel with the most grip. If the vehicle begins to oversteer in a bend, the system increases torque at the inside wheel to provide stability. Conversely, it reduces torque at the inner wheel to prevent understeer, redirecting power to the outer wheel for traction.

Control is centralised via the HCP1 (High-Performance Computing Platform), which harmonises driver inputs with environmental data. This platform interprets steering intentions to provide unfiltered transfer to the wheels.

• Electromechanical torque vectoring at the rear axle works in conjunction with front-axle supports:
• Electronic Differential Lock: Enhances front-axle traction via the brakes.
• Brake Torque Vectoring: Provides additional front-end assistance.
• Adaptive Shock Absorbers: The twin-valve units are calibrated with the rear transaxle to improve throttle response and corner entry.

The system allows for customisable driving characteristics through various drive select modes, ranging from a balanced setup to a rear-biased configuration. Audi states the ‘fixed coupling’ of this electromechanical solution ensures torque distribution remains independent of drive torque, a distinction from clutch-based torque splitters.

International Motors and Ryder System have commenced a joint autonomous truck pilot, integrating a factory-produced autonomous vehicle (AV) into live freight operations. Ryder is the first participant in the manufacturer's autonomous fleet trial programme.

The pilot operates on a daily 600-mile (965km) route along the I-35 corridor between Ryder locations in Laredo and Temple, Texas. The vehicle used is an International LT Series truck equipped with the S13 Integrated Powertrain.

The autonomous trucks will use factory-installed suite including LiDAR, radar and cameras. AI-based SuperDrive autonomous driving software provided by PlusAI. They are designed to operate within existing infrastructure without the requirement for dedicated autonomous terminals.

Initial data from the trial indicates 100 percent on-time delivery and 92 percent autonomous route coverage, conducted under the supervision of a human safety driver. Pre-trip inspections have been completed in under 30 minutes and the company reports improvements in fuel efficiency.

The pilot project aims to validate autonomous technology within an active long-haul logistics network. Identify value propositions for long-haul transport. Gather operational feedback to finalise product features for commercial launch. Collect data on uptime, serviceability and terminal processes.

James Cooper, Head of Autonomous Solutions, International, said, "In partnering with fleet customers to determine path-to-deployment, we're focused on integrating factory-ready virtual driver software into existing transport operations, without the need for dedicated autonomous terminals. The mission is to deliver a quality, OEM-validated solution to ensure our customers receive the reliability and valued experience they trust from International. As an OEM, our target is to provide our customers with an end-to-end solution including vehicles, digital solutions, and operational support services, allowing customers to operate directly from their existing infrastructure and minimising additional complexity. Ryder's participation underscores our shared commitment to practical autonomous fleet deployment. Together, we're working to turn pilots into scalable, commercial solutions."

Seth deVlugt, Senior Director of RyderVentures and New Product Strategy, Ryder, added, "For Ryder, this pilot represents an important step forward—moving beyond terminal- and maintenance-focused trials to evaluating autonomy in live operations. The insights we gain here will help us further understand how autonomy could potentially be applied across portions of the supply chain. Autonomy is informed by real-world operational experience, not test tracks. Operating an AV in an active logistics network with the supervision of a safety driver allows us to validate the technology where it matters most – on a real lane, moving real freight, for a real customer."
