MODERATORS
Because they are making electrified ICE cars, not thinking clean slate EV like China. 48V architecture is a must now, saves thousands per car in wiring and complexity. They also make these EVs too powerful, which just eats up tires and causes them to crash more.
Next: YASA axial hub motors, they weigh less than a brake rotor setup, and they are powerful to stop a car with just regen, no brakes needed. Can output 300hp per wheel.
