so im just finishing up my current conversion, its a small 1999 hyundai accent, 72v 230ah, or around 16kwh and i was thinking of what i would do different in my next car and it brought me thinking.
is direct drive with an 11" motor more efficient than a 9" on a transmission? it would make sense that the 11" direct would be more efficcient, because it doesnt need to move gear and crap around, but then your top speed will be very low if you have 144v or less?
i have no experience with direct drive so anyone who has done a direct drive conversion, is it just a better drivetrain for raacing/drag? or can any normal car with 144-156 go direct drive and getmore range?
thanks
