Looks like an outrunner running directly into the tranny. You won't have much gearing choices (NONE), and you don't really know how it will perform, either torque, or top speed.

I have always wanted to use outrunners, however, i think they should be used without a tranny, and if it's possible without diffs (1 motor per wheel) for true transmission-less operation.

If these outrunner's were efficient enough, like 92%, that would make a very efficient setup.

Eventually we will have motors right inside the wheels.

To cut to the chase, I wouldn't bother with it... IMO
