But I want one. It would be so cool. Gotta find a way to make it loud under high current draw. You’d have to run a motor that’s an outrunner (rotor on the outside of the windings) than an inrunner style, so it would be shorter and bigger diameter, which would lower the RPM and increase the torque for a given power draw.

Not flat, loses torque the higher you rev. This is a model S p85.
