Dodge Will Try To Stop You From Modifying Their EVs | Carscoops carscoops
whether tuners would be able to work their magic on the EV powertrain, Kuniskis gave a definitive answer.“No, I’m sure somebody will try and hack it, but that will be exclusive to Direct Connection and, quite frankly, that’s one of the reasons that we feel very strongly about what I call the ‘Crystals’,” he said. “The crystals are tied to the car, tied to the VIN, tied to the ECM of that car. It’s specific for that tune, for that car.
The ’Crystals’ that Kuniskis is referring to represent the different tunes that the company will offer for the. For example, the entry-level 456 hp version can be upgraded to 535 hp with the eStage 2 ‘Crystal.’ “Now, we don’t want to lock the cars and say you can’t modify them,” Kuniskis added. “We just want to lock them and say modify them through us so that we know that it’s done right. Now, we want to do that because we’d rather spend our time coming up with more modifications for you instead of, literally, trying to whack-a-mole the hackers.
