A new design method for motors by Donut Lab: in wheel drive unit, 845 hp, 88 lbs.
what do you guys think? merely at a proof of concept stage? or since it's been "validated" with real numbers, it'll just need more real world testing before scaled production?
is there anything lucid can learn as they focus on improving efficiency? obviously, there are pros and cons to each design method, and lucid needs to think more than just the motor. but if the numbers are true, there's definitely something to be learned or used as inspiration for future designs, especially since this is a drastically different way/approach to motor design.
