AWD EV OK by: Dan Bentler
Have couple thoughts regarding 4WD EV 1. Battery size (range) will vary with vehicle weight. There will be a little more battery needed to overcome the front axle spinning (unless you have disconnect hubs) 2. Chucking engine transmission transfer case and driving front shaft with one motor and rear shaft with another AND use two controllers (one possibly slaved from other) would give you an ideal (almost - IDEAL is 4 motors one on each hub) AWD setup. This also gives you a limp home ability ie one motor or controller fails turn it off and use other. 3. In my experience AWD is needed only at 25 MPH or less and off road or in snow ice only. 4. Over 25 or so and on hard pavement and with front axle hubs disconnected you should do about as well as a truck of comparable weight.
