The flywheel is downsized to give a continuum between shift of gears, else unlike a ICE engine, when you take your leg off the pedal, the motor goes zero torque when you are re-engaging gears. The only other product that they have for comparison is the Sonalika tractor. So we have a clutch that connects to a huge flywheel.
