The motor i'm planning to use in my conversion of 1500 kg (including battery) is an 11 kw ac three phase 1470 rpm motor. I'm planning to retain the transmission. What could be the approximate max speed of the vehicle in the top (5th) gear. The vehicle is a sedan car.

karter and steven thanks for your kind reply. My doubt is, does a 11 kw but 1470 rpm motor can propel a 1500 kg vehicle beyond 60 70 kmph.
