Look out, Koenigsegg, there might be a new king of the electric motor hill. British electric vehicle technology brand Donut Lab has a new EV motor deliciously named the "Donut Motor," and it packs 856 horsepower. Even better, it weighs just 88 pounds. That's a better power-to-weight ratio than Koenigsegg's Dark Matter motor, which weighs about the same but makes 822 horsepower.
That's a small difference but the Donut Motor claims to make a lot more torque. According to Donut Labs, in its automotive spec (there are truck and bike applications as well), this new motor can make as much as 3,172 pound-feet of torque. That seems a bit extreme and I'm wondering what sort of lab-specific circumstances are needed to make that much twist. But even when drastically reduced for road use and actually applied to the wheels, it should still be an eye-watering figure.
