    Notice how thick the frickin wires are on that. Assuming 4AWG to the battery (135A chassis rating) you're talking 2ish HP. While that's not a huge amount it's enough to get the wheel moving. Based on there being 3 wires I'm guessing it's a brushless 3 phase electric motor. Naturally there's gonna be some decently sophisticated electronics around this. It almost certainly will be tied into an ECU.

    The other question is how big of a compressor this will come with.
