Default Torque Vectoring on BASE 2017?

Hi everyone, my dealer has told me that my base 2017 is standard with Torque vectoring, not sure if he is right or not, has anyone else heard anything like this? thanks

Don't think so. But it can also be market dependant as I see you're in Australia. TV is standard on the 2018MY for the North American market.

This was not the case when I was purchasing my car. It wasn't even standard feature on V6S and required performance brakes package. I would ask sales to put that promise in writing, with a clause they would take the car back if it doesn't have it.

However, outside of track conditions this feature isn't essential.

Would it show up in the Topix listing against the VIN # ?

More like if you don't plan to drive your car spirited on twisty curvy roads then its unnecessary. A track is not needed to take advantage of TV. I take advantage of it on Skyline Blvd frequently.
