Abstract
A method to control a road vehicle driven by a driver and provided with at least a first drive wheel and a second driver wheel belonging to a same axle, each drive wheel being independently operated by a respective first and second electric motor; the control method comprises the step of controlling the torque delivered by each respective motor to the first drive wheel or to the second drive wheel as a function of a torque requested by the driver and independently of the difference in angular speed between the first and the second wheel.
