I was just learning about CVJ gearing the other day and was thinking cars should use it instead of fixed gear ratios. Very cool.

It's still a fixed ratio though?

If you're gonna go through all this trouble, why not put motors directly into the wheels? Then you can bypass the drivetrain all together and directly power the wheels.

If you put the motor in the wheel you increase the unsuspended mass. Bad for handling and ride quality
