Sg, the motor is half the size and half the weight of a comparable design and on a truck/lorrie/light armoured vehicle is 20% more efficient,so a 300mile range would now be 360miles,and the 16 segments can be turned off to reduce power as they are all contolled individually by there own power supply like a ww2 radial engine sort of design.. and now we have peter the ex tesla and dyson electric motor specialist onboard so if there are any improvements he should find them,if this gets a big contract then the share price is a few pence, over 1.4 billion people in india and the gov. are pushing for ev,cars ,trucks,bus,s, rickshaws,and scooter/motorbikes,as the air quality in big cities is dangerous,having been to india many times and travelled top to bottom,i can vouch for the smoke/dust/pollution first hand,you cant travel with the windows down,and a cloth over your face probably doesnt do much,they are still using old cars from the 50/60,s as taxi,s,and servicing a vehicle or putting tyres on it only happens when they are bald,most of there transport is by road,a huge market to tap into,tata and maruti suzuki are the popular small cheap cars,circa £6k and petrol,diesel is not popular anymore.pm modi just reelected and his aim is to push for ev vehicles,they are also going the solar farm route for extra electricity supply as the country is heating up with 50 degree temps being recorded,this year has seen the most deaths from heat stroke/dehydration,luckily the rainy season has just started.
