Lordstown Motors is entering their truck using 4 Elaphe L1500 motors in a 250 mile offroad race this weekend. https://lordstownmotors.com/blogs/news/score-san-felipe-250-race-truck-a-first-look
This should be an extreme test of the Elaphe in-wheel motor reliability with about double the weight per wheel of the Aptera.
Just as a side note, another EV just finished the NORRA Mexican 1000 which is a race 3 times the length of the above Baja 250. This was using a stock Volkwagen ID4 with modified suspension for off-road use. It utilized the stock motor and battery. It came in in the middle of the pack, but the important thing is that it finished. Let's hear it for EV's!!
