Not exactly what I would consider a full-EV motor, even though I guess it could get the job done for certain really-small cars and those Japanese old-school tiller tractors. On a sidenote, there were times when I considered trying to make a wind power generator resorting to a regular alternator, even though it would be limited to 12-volt mostly for auxiliary power. Might eventually give it a try someday, even though it's not so likely to happen while I live in an apartment
