Lab is based on similar technology to the drive unit already used in the TS models from Verge Motorcycles.\u00a0 While the TS bikes boast around 200 hp (147 kW) and a range of up to 370 km (230 miles), the new engine takes the performance level to a whole new level.\u00a0 However, at 856 hp (630 kW), it is far too powerful for use in motorcycles &#8211; but it could have a big impact in other vehicle categories, such as UTVs, ATVs or even snowmobiles.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Power density and possible applications<\/h3>\n<p>The engine weighs just 40 kg (88 lbs), giving it an impressive power-to-weight ratio.\u00a0 The high power density could help future electric vehicles offer similar or even better performance than current combustion vehicles.\u00a0 A scaled motor with around 300 hp (220 kW) could be used in a Polaris RZR or a <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycles.news\/en\/tag\/can-am-en\/\" target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Can-Am\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"687\">Can-Am<\/a> Outlander, for example.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of Donut Lab is to provide manufacturers with a fully developed system that includes the motor, battery, control system and software.\u00a0 This should reduce development and production costs while improving reliability and ease of maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Future prospects<\/h3>\n<p>According to Donut Lab, the company&#8217;s focus is on developing innovative solutions that offer both performance and simplicity.\u00a0 The company&#8217;s website states: \u201cBacked by a team of visionary engineers, designers and industry experts, Donut Lab is focused on developing solutions that redefine simplicity, increase performance and minimize maintenance.\u201d\u00a0 The company works closely with partners from the automotive, aviation and robotics sectors to offer versatile electric drive solutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>Donut Lab has unveiled an exciting development with its new in-stroke motor that has the potential to transform various vehicle categories.\u00a0 While the current motor is oversized for motorcycles, a smaller version could offer interesting possibilities for electric two-wheelers and other recreational vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure
