    No, I might be behind the times on this but usually you power axles, do you not (really naively asking)?

    I would imagines any disruptions only affecting one wheel instead of axle being rather catastrophic. The brakes are also always set up in a way that you don’t brake on one wheel only even if it’s damaged.

    So uncoupling all 4 wheels seems like a really really bad idea. Of course you can compensate this electronically, but that will work about sd well as the Boeing 737 max with its issues. There are physical things you should not mess with.

    But maybe as I said I am behind the times and with electric cars that’s normal now to power wheels (l/r) separately?
