Hyundai managed to put its 'crab-walking' e-Corner technology into an Ioniq EV

Five years after debuting at CES 2018, Hyundai's e-Corner technology is closer to reality. Following its most recent appearance at CES 2021, the system was on display at last week's show. And this time around, rather than building a dedicated prototype to showcase the tech, the automaker's Mobis arm instead integrated e-Corner into an Ioniq 5 EV. As you can see from the video the Hyundai shared ( via Autoblog), the module, much like the Hummer EV's "CrabWalk" functionality, allows a car's wheels to turn in ways they can't in a vehicle with a traditional suspension system. Subsequently, that allows you to complete maneuvers you can't in other vehicles.
