Comment on About to ruin your whole day
I drive an EV. I have no engine.
Engine and motor are synonyms. Broadly speaking, newer technology gets called motor to differentiate it from older technology.
See steam engine. Motor car. Etc.
And yeah, electric motors have fuck all to go wrong. Love my EV.
(Sorry for being a pedant)
Even electic motors have an optimal operating temp, but its not as detrimental to run outside it
