How many conversions have you done, over how many years? What performance would you expect with a 68hp/50Kw 10,000rpm single speed AC motor?
68HP is about what a stock gasoline powered Metro comes with, and I would think that single speed would be a bit of a problem. The torque would probably be more than the ICE motor, but I would want a transmission. I run the factory 5 speed in this rig, and this is a 70Kw set up.
