Re: for those considering an EV datto, best electric engine yet!

mini bmw and a few others have gone for 4 x hub motors
they put a fair bit of wait on suspension in the wrong place
not bad for a commuter but for lightweight datsun it would
be like lead shoes on a greyshound :)
An ev conversion can take a very long time to complete even
more than custom ICE. Check out this guy and he only uses
one ac engine but plenty of brains there.
He even got to be a head mechanic honcho for Tesla

You really just want minimal complexity with a datto
eg rwd, weight in the middle, low and batteries like
the LTOs used in chinese buses can put out 10C!!!

Matt you might want to check out the billet bits
maybe for the ev guys instead of boom boom heads.
