Ok wow that is fascinating.
They ran the leaf drive line for over 3 hours at power levels that would kill the battery anywhere between 20 and 30 minutes.
At maximum power consumption 94mph my leaf is usually drawing less than 40kw on level ground.
So it looks like 80kw of power and about 256nm of torque are the hard stops.
What's the lowest RPM where 256mn could be achieved with out wrecking anything?
