P-Hack, you obviously have some strong feelings about this, tell us how you really feel? Did you even read the first sentence of the first post? I dont know if you are intentionally trying to be Debbie Downer, but you are being very antagonistic.
The biggest reason I like electric for this application, is because I think it would be fun to design and build, period. The second biggest reason is because in my experience, most ICE's don't produce sufficient torque at idle, which is where the majority of the time is spent. Instead, they have to be oversized.
No where have I said this would be practical, or cost efficient. I have also not said that gearboxes would not be used, I had just asked a question about the electric motors having both sides of the spectrum.
