Would an electric car do that much? (Not without new motors anyway).

Why would contactless motors wear out?



might need new bearings, but really 100,000 miles is not a lot..at 20
mph average its only 5,000 hours - less than a year really.

electric motors that will run for a year without stopping are hardly
rocket science.

More likely failure modes are due to damage

Gearbox?


what gearbox?
