Not really. You can use this on an ICE, but this really is useful (compared to a CV joint) when you have very short axles. On a ICE the axle needs to cross the entire width of the car anyway in some form, so you may as well use a CV joint. With an EV they want to use 4 small motors as close to each wheel as possible and thus free up space in the middle of the car where the axle used to go. A CV joint has a longer minimum length axle compared to this, so the motor has to go that much closer to the middle. When they use this they get useful space in the middle of the car (between the motors) that can be used for something else.
