You don't need a 5k Watt motor for this vehicle if you build it as a power assisted bicycle.
A 3kWatt 78 volt motor will do if it has planetary gears built in, and another gear reduction with the belt drive.
To have it registered as a motorcycle you will need a lot of testing.
They won't allow it as a car in this state unless it has four wheels.
If
you think you are rich enough to buy a new electric truck, do it. But
if you can afford only about three to four thousand $ [over a period
of time] you are going to have to build a small EV your self. It took
me a few years to build one but I did not have any help. And that
much money is not as bad as you think, because if you are paying for
gasoline you waste at least that much on toxic pollution that will be destroying your children's future. Each gallon
of gasoline, which weighs about 6.3 pounds, produces about 20 pounds
of carbon dioxide (CO2) when burned. However, most of the weight of
the CO2 doesn't come from the gasoline itself, but the oxygen in the
air. When gasoline burns, the carbon and hydrogen separate.
This
is why I believe that every neighborhood should build one of the large
cycletrucks.
