Vehicle weight distribution between axles and sides impacts handling, traction and stability.
With quality components designed for rugged use and proper maintenance, hub motors can be leveraged for off-road use cases when matched to the intended operating conditions and duty cycle.
While hub motors provide simplicity and efficiency through their compact wheel integration, they naturally generate heat as a byproduct of electrical resistance and mechanical friction during operation.
Smaller ratios allow higher top speeds due to lower RPM needs, while larger ratios provide greater climbing power from increased torque.
