Production motor JJE

I'm very curious what the stock Slate torque rating will be. I'm guessing it's really 236 ft lbs.

The Slate Truck is all electric, carrying a 52.7-kWh battery that powers a single rear motor producing 201 hp and 195 lb-ft of torque. Acceleration from a stop to 60 mph should take about 8.0 seconds.​

Sorry to late post, but when I try to convert the torque to pound feet I get crazy numbers. Peak torque on this motor says 3200 Newton Meters. When I plug that into a converter I get 2360 ft lbs which can't be right. You couldn't touch the throttle without shredding the back tires. Can someone smarter than me figure it out? I'm very curious what the stock Slate torque rating will be. I'm guessing it's really 236 ft lbs.

For integrated electric axles like this one, the mfg quotes axle torque downstream of the 12.x gear reduction, not motor rotor torque. From the motor to the axle, the torque is multiplied by the gear ratio and the speed is divided by the gr, plus a small bit of torque loss due to gear and bearing friction.

The 2360 you got would be at the axle. If you calculated the torque after the transmission and differential on a regular car you'll find a similarly large number.

Checked their site. See this: motor mounting:

• Mounting：3 pints at front & rear

I just hope the workers aren't into that many pints. lol

3 pints could get me a little tipsy, depending on alcohol content.
