Texas, the really flat part | Electric motors can live a long time at maximum output. Much longer than any ice. A spinning armature in two bearings are all the moving parts you’re dealing with. The electric motor was never the drawback, it was battery technology that held up the switch to EV transportation and that technology is now here. Tesla is offering over 500 miles of range from its newest car and a 0 to 60 mph time of under 2 seconds. You’re not going to find performance like that in a street legal vehicle anywhere, at any price. |
