Lithium iron phosphate can do more like 7C.
I have been using lithium iron phosphate batteries since 2010 and found that they suffer from really bad cold numbing and can be damaged if charged while cell temperature is 20 degrees F or colder.
The warp 11 motor is most efficient around 5,000 to 6,000 RPM if I remember correctly. If you try to run it too slow at cruising speed it will cook. So unless you have a rear diff with a 5:1 or 6:1 ratio direct drive may not be a good option.
All that comes down to speed, tire size and gear ratios.
