January 20, 20251 yr These powerful in-wheel motors could spawn the next generation of affordable high-performance EVs https://www.techradar.com/vehicle-tech/hybrid-electric-vehicles/these-powerful-in-wheel-motors-could-spawn-the-next-generation-of-affordable-high-performance-evs "Donut Lab wasn’t the only in-wheel motor pioneers on display at CES this year, as Slovenian firm Elaphe Propulsion Technologies also showcased its ultra-thin Sonic 1 hardware that’s capable of developing 268hp, while allowing enough space inside a 21-inch wheel for standard high-performance disc brakes." "Despite those lengthy time frames, the race is on to be the first to introduce in-wheel motors to the buying public. BMW announced last year that it was working with Munich-based electric motor engineers DeepDrive to develop in-wheel motor technology that could be scaled to a point where it makes financial sense for mass-produced EVs. Similarly, serial innovator Hyundai Motor Group has been working on and refining its ‘Uni Wheel’ technology since 2023."

That's why competition MTBs and most cars use mid-motors
