I'd have to look it up if they're doing any more of the car, but Roush is doing at least the suspension and doors.

As far as the hub motors go they've gone through a lot of testing over the last several years. Electric motors are getting smaller, more efficient and more powerful. It has just been a matter of time before they were small and strong enough to have made sense in wheel hubs.
