A car carrying its own weight in batteries alone will do more harm then good to the drive train, brakes, handling and who knows what else. The batteries aren't capable of charging fast even if used with a powerful charger. Please look at the pictures I attached of the transaxle (s) (transmission (s) as it can have up to 3 speed) I'm thinking off using. So Tesla could've done something very stout with a better LCG. Oh no, does the motor on the first transaxle looks familiar? Yes it does as it is the same motor in the Tesla. The other transaxle has a brushed style motor.
Edit: Forgot to mention that a 4WD set up can easily be made using those transaxles.
