As far as I can tell know one has put an appropriate hub motor on a car, driven it on the road in the real world and been able to wear out a set of tires on one with out having to pull the hub motor to replace bearings or replace the hub motor it's self.
For comparison the only drive line maintenance my leaf has had to wear out a set of tires is an oil change and it wasn't even required.
