Nope, all moronic attempts at making a fairly robust assembly look shaky and expensive. Shame on you colonSloth.

We engineers always use a factor of safety in our design work, so your talk about inverters (which you obviously don’t understand), motors (also don’t understand it’s reliability)… You’re basically listing a parts list for the mach-e from most to least expensive parts.

If/when a battery assembly wears out to needing replacement, most of everything else should still be working fine. You may need to replace the fluid pump, brakes, maybe even a wheel bearing. Throwing words in like “control modules” as though they fail frequently is as big a joke as you are.

Answer this, knucklehead: when you visit a factory, with many many pumps and moving machinery, operating 24/7 365, are they using a combustion engine as the prime mover for all this equipment, where reliability is Paramount?
