No idea if they are more effecient but they should make more torque. As far as using a larger diameter shorter length motor over a smaller diameter longer motor it makes more sense for the large range of rpm that we encounter to use a smaller diameter longer rotor. It will be able to accelerate and decelerate faster than the larger diameter shortor rotor motor.
Does a 2 pole motor accelerate or deccelerate quicker than a 4/6/8 pole motor?
