The high
rpm of the electric motor eliminates the need for heavy and expensive transmissions.
Not exact matches
The current i8's three - cylinder, range - extending internal combustion engine will be ditched in favor
of three high - revving (25,000

electric motors producing a total
of 750 hp and more potent batteries capable
of delivering a 300 - mile range.
Split into three separate units on the rear axle, each
of the
electric motors produce maximum torque at 0
rpm.
Electric motors are most potent from zero
rpm, so most
of the acceleration, delivered via a single - speed auto transmission, is in the first 30mph, though BMW does claim that the engine changes enhance acceleration at higher road speeds, too.
This is supplemented by an
electric motor that drives directly through the differential (not the gearbox, as in the P1), spins at 16,500
rpm and contributes a further 161bhp and 199 lb ft. Together with the batteries, the combined weight
of the hybrid system is 146 kg - roughly half that
of the admittedly beefier 918 Spyder's hybrid system.
The engineering
of this ultramodern car is absolutely unreal: a monocoque built from carbon - fiber - reinforced plastic; a racing - type weight distribution
of 43 percent front / 57 percent rear; rear tires that are each over a foot wide; a plug - in hybrid powertrain with
electric motors on each axle that delivers 19 miles
of range in full -
electric mode; a seven - speed PDK transmission; and a 4.6 - liter V - 8 engine that revs to 9150
rpm and makes 608 hp.
Instead
of a beak and plumage, we got a 12,000 -

There is no need for a transmission with an
electric vehicle (assuming that the speed and characteristics
of the
motor match the application — for applications where this isn't the case
electric motors are often coupled with a gearbox to (usually) reduce the output speed
of the
motor to something usable) because an
electric motor produces maximum torque at 0
RPM.

Throttle response, seamless in most situations, is a bit sluggish when trying to rock out
of deep slush, although the
electric motor does boost low - end torque (163 lb - ft at 2000
