Comments on: I’m working on building an electric vehicle. how do you figure out the cc equivalency of a DC motor? https://www.electricvehicleinfo.com/building-electric-vehicles/im-working-on-building-an-electric-vehicle-how-do-you-figure-out-the-cc-equivalency-of-a-dc-motor.html Electric Vehicle Information Resource Sun, 20 Feb 2011 01:03:40 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=3.8.41 By: ivan k https://www.electricvehicleinfo.com/building-electric-vehicles/im-working-on-building-an-electric-vehicle-how-do-you-figure-out-the-cc-equivalency-of-a-dc-motor.html#comment-43 Mon, 15 Nov 2010 12:58:16 +0000 http://www.electricvehicleinfo.com/building-electric-vehicles/im-working-on-building-an-electric-vehicle-how-do-you-figure-out-the-cc-equivalency-of-a-dc-motor.html#comment-43 use a mars (brigs and stratten) e-tek, or a perm 132. These motors have good low rpm torque and would do a fine job of driving the motorcycle.

A 50 CC motor will get 12.5 HP top out.

EDIT

But cc’s really don’t relate to power, also is it a 2 stroke or 4 stroke engine, how is it tuned, what’s the compression ratio, all of which effect how much HP an engine puts out.
