[QUOTE="aidilj, post: 558432, member: 20536"] Drive by wire throttle solves a few problems I guess Greener - as the pedal input has to go through DME first, DME can apply the best throttle opening - for best efficiency Traction control - cutting power by closing throttle Cruise control - speed is controlled by the computer (DME) and shifts gear as necessary because DME has control over EGS Some I can think of right now, if you are worried about safety, there are redundant sensors at the pedal making sure the input is correct [/QUOTE]
