Suspension, rack and pinion steering, lights, 1HP motor, batteries, a stereo and heater+fan.
A remarkable piece of engineering for the price.
Give you an unreasonable sense of safety?Cold Fussion wrote: ↑Thu Dec 03, 2020 5:48 amWhat can a 1hp electric car do that an electric cargo bike can't do?
It was a ridiculous comment by V12 because very little of the video being interesting is contingent on the car being electric. The manufacturing efficiency and design decisions to keep the costs down are the interesting and most discussed part, how it was assembled, how truck-like the suspension is, etc etc.
The biggest advantage of disks is anti-fade with repeated heavy use. If this car is regen, there will not be much heavy use, and with the intended use there will not be high speed stops either repeated or not.Greg Locock wrote: ↑Sun Dec 06, 2020 6:44 amDrum brakes are lighter, easier to package, guarantee zero drag, and self-servo. They have some very significant disadvantages of course. If you are using regen then they become emergency brakes.
