I cannot find this information anywhere...

my mitsubishi lancer ICE develops @ peak 120HP...around 5000 RPM

lets say I wanted to keep the same performance with an electric motor

should I go with a 120HP motor with 89 000Watts peak power?

In my head this does not make sence because I am never never driving my car in the 5000 rpm... Im guessing my car has 30-40hp at 2000 rpm where the sweet spot for fuel economy is....

Can anyone clarify this for me?

Thanks

Interesting thing on the dyno result is that at 50mph it requires 11.7hp to overcome rolling resistance.

that is what I mean... Do I absolutely need a peak 120hp motor? when 50mph = 11.7hp?

to travel at 50mph I would need a nominal 8728Watts of power to push around the vehicle...

Im sooo confused
