Hub motors for race car application

[eskiba]

Can someone out there help me gather a list of companies that produce hub motors. I am working on a project on a Formula SAE racecar and we want to utilize hub motors in the design. We are currently in touch with PML over in England but are trying to search for other options.

eskiba,

At my previous employer, we did some of the system design and development for the S10 show truck, and the system used on the upcoming Sequel fuel cell electric vehicle, for GM Torrance. The wheel hub motors were sourced from Lucchi R. Electromeccanica Srl, Rimini, Italy.

There is another option here in the US. Check out:
