    It's been a while. I think it was a later Autoline interview (maybe one of the other ev sites) when the interviewed Monro.

    Right... in my previous reply to you I said: "The motor used for the 3 and Semi is a switched reluctance permanent magnet (SWRPM) motor."

    If you just say that it is confusing. Switched reluctance or permanent magnet? The word assisted is important. In principle it is switched reluctance motor.

    The Tesla part is called a "SWPRM".

    Good that you are now unconfused.
