Huh. That's interesting. I wonder why they rated the motor for such a high voltage, then made it's critical supply far short on the power output??
Maybe it has to do with when the boost is working - I mean, up to about 6000 rpm, the BEMF is less than 250Vrms. (2010 Prius motor data) Perhaps they're using the booster only if necessary for high speeds?
