Firts thank you to Kim Mathers for this clear and thoughtful presentation !!! I was thinking at first that this module was designed to replace the main engine and will be connected to the main shaft where the clutch and gear box was located. But instead, making a separate unit for each wheel is the perfect solution. Just eliminating the main shaft and differential on each of the axial is a great energy saving.

(thanks for reminding me what FNC stands for with rotors by the way) Unsprung weight reduction here is insane compared to standard solid axle setup. Unsprung weight has biggest effect on ride feel. Not to mention Rotational mass. Redundancy with Brake fluid cant take out the entire system, assuming electrical failure has failsafe. Would be interested to see brake actuation design.

At least the upper part looks very symmetrical, so I assume that it is one module, adjusted differently. The steering actuators and arms would probably need to be installable in either position, to match the opposite side corner. The brake calipers would presumably also swap positions, and any anti-dive/anti-squat suspension angles would need to be set as well.
