Yeah 180 KM/h is all- but that will still get you a ticket to the pokey in most states, and the 250 km range is kind of a drag too, but I really think this sort of arrangement, specifically a reaosnable high powered motor on each wheel, is going to be the rally car configuration of the future.
Yeah, You've Probably Never Heard Of Me.

Actually that's a lot of dead weight, they should go with the bicycle tires that every other electric has

Lets see, ELECTRIC motors- how about infinity miles per gallon....
They need dubs to fit the motors inside the wheels.
Did you look at the picture? would you laugh if that drove by?
(well maybe you would, because it would zoom by silently like a golf cart)

Try putting 67 HP through a bicycle tire and let me know if you can get any traction at all.....
