[In a car,] “by-wire” refers to the electric/electronic controls that ultimately will replace or assist traditional automotive mechanical or hydraulic systems such as steering, braking, suspension and throttle control. By placing electronic controls (a computer) between the driver and the system, automakers can gain design flexibility, shave weight and decrease the manufacturing complexity of both system components and vehicle assembly. 3, record 3, English, - x%2Dby%2Dwire
