In the United States showed an electric car with four engines

On the Thermal Club racetrack in U.S. California, field trials of the Drako GTE electric supercar have been field tested.

It is reported by Electrek. At the wheel of a luxury car worth $1.25 million during the tests was the famous Lamborghini test pilot Valentino Balboni (to watch the video, scroll the news to the end).

The first model of the company is a four-seater electric supercar, with batteries at 90 kWh and a quick charge function. A key feature of the car is its four-engine transmission, where each engine can operate in a power range from +225 kW to -225 kW.

Four permanent magnet motors generate 1,200 horsepower. with a total torque of 8800 Nm. The maximum speed of the car will be more than 330 km/h.

Each of the GTE wheels is connected to the engine via separate direct-drive gearboxes, which allows them to be individually controlled for a very accurate transmission of torque. Each motor also has its own gearbox on the wheel, which provides extremely high torque.

Such a system allows the use of vector torque control technology for steering correction in high-performance situations. This allows car owners who love speed to use the Drako GTE during races, the publication notes.
