Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If used for industrial machinery rather than vehicles
Same power range DC motors not specified for EV propulsion default to 'other' category 8501.32.4000.
If output exceeds 75kW
Higher power DC motors (>75kW) classify under 8501.10 regardless of application.
If integral to complete electric motorcycle wheel hub
Motors permanently built into vehicle wheels (e.g., hub motors) may classify with the vehicle under 8714.
