Wiring series wound DC motors in parallel will already be a differential of sorts. For example, with both wheels spinning off the ground, if you stop one, the other will speed up, exactly the same as a mechanical diff. The reason I know this is I made a Lego version of this once.
However, these motors in question are AC or BLDC, which require individual controllers per motor. They would be just fine without computer intervention for every day driving, as there is no direct mechanical link between each side. It's the situations that would normally require a limited slip/torsen differential that would would require computer intervention to direct power where needed.
