I disagree, its always the power your interested in - you then set the gear ratio to get the torque you want. This motor still has 90kW @ 8,000 RPM (30seconds) and 60kW+ continuous.
The constant torque is constant 300Nm to just over 3k RPM, which gives the peak of 100kW for 30secs.
*According to my simulations* With the standard 8.28:1 borgwarner direct drive for this motor, in a smallish un-aerodynamic 5door hatchback weighing 1500kg, your looking at;
- 0-100kmph of about 7.4sec and top speed of about ~145kph reached in ~22.5seconds. Interesting enough, the top speed is limited by RPM (10k) and not torque.
If you made the vehicle lighter, this would obviously improve the acceleration times significantly.
