Okay so, I was not sure if high T motors actually produced more torque (which would be better for hill climbing, etc), but somebody on Endless Sphere said it's not the case.

Yes, I know forums cannot always be a reliable source of information.
And I went on Grin website to get more reliable information, and it said, "The Grin All-Axle Motor is currently produced with three different windings; a slow 8 turn stator, a standard 6 turn stator, and a fast 5 turn stator. All three motor winds are capable of producing exactly the same torque and power outputs so the recommended motor model depends on youre desired vehicle speed."

If that's the case, what's the point of having high T motor?![Thinking face :thinking: 🤔](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f914.png)
It seems like high T motor will only give you low rpm, and won't give you any more torque than low T motor.
It seems like high T motor is just inferior version of low T motor.
What's the advantage of high T motor?

Explain motor winding counts
I have been seeing these 6x9 4x4 8x10... numbers floating around to describe the windings on motors. I think I understand what this means, but I'd like a confirmation. A 6x9 motor is a 6 turn motor, meaning 6 turns of each wire wrapped around the stator. In this case there are 9 wires. More...
