It seems to me that you could have a very energy-efficient car by have a small electric motor and a transmission. You wouldn't need to carry that huge motor coil for torque, just spin the motor to 28k rpm. Using a high amperage and a low voltage and gearing that up, you could have a much safer ev, potentially running it off of SLA or other batteries that are less environmentally harmful no? I want y'alls input on why this isn't possible, or at least why its not being done.
