Common in ICE cars oo, mostly turbo ones. The difference between the 100HP model and the 120HP model is only an ECU map.

Nah, with equivalent graphical settings and resolution, the PC would manage at least 3 times the framerate. Unsteady 30FPS with terrible frame pacing is nothing that consoles can brag about.
