Protean Electric rolls towards making in-wheel electric motors a reality
Yahoo!
Each motor pushes 100-hp and features a monstrous 739 lb.-ft. of torque—a figure Protean claim to be the "highest torque density of any of today’s leading electric drive systems." With a weight of 75 lbs. per motor and a regenerative braking system that recovers 85-percent of kinetic energy, the whole unit fits within a conventional 18-inch wheel.
