Re: Electric car with 1,350Nm of torque on sale now - 11-05-2007, 06:23 PM

The only thing I am interested is the size of the electric motor in this thing for research. The common size for electric motor that produce around 600 Nm of torque is around 700mm in length and 500mm in diameter, and they are very large and heavy things to fit inside such a tiny box.

The vehicle’s chassis is made of stainless steel and features an integrated roll-cage for added safety. The body panels are made of carbon fiber, Kevlar, and fiberglass, and its side impact bars are claimed to offer four times the protection found in typical SUVs.
A typical SUV isn't that safe anyway, and this little box on wheels are probably 4 times as likely to roll over than a typical SUV.
