E-bike gurus please step in, building a wheelchairiot thing

OK, school me boys
I want to use two hub motors to power a conveyance that I can roll my in-laws chair into. I have plenty of creative juices going, but no experience with hub motors.
1) I don't want high speeds.
2) Do want high torque to get it started in soft stuff.
3) plan on controlling with differential steering, but may augment it with some sort of front steering.
What say you?
